Abstract

Community Partnership Empowerment (PKM) activities have been carried out in the youth group and Mrs. GMIT Ebenhaezer Bilamun, Kupang Regency, East Nusa Tengara Province.The youth group in the church organization system is known as the backbone of the church while the mothers' group is known as the family kitchen. The number of people in this congregation is 105 households. Therefore, empowerment efforts in the agricultural sector for young people and mothers need to be carried out to improve the welfare of the congregation or community, especially families.The aim of this activity is to introduce, provide understanding, and knowledge an environmentally friendly agricultural system (eco farming) through the use of palm oil shells into biochar in the church environment. The methods of activities carried out are counseling (socialization), training and mentoring (plot demonstration using an intercropping system for land measuring 300 m2). Socialization regarding eco farming, intercropping systems, and bokashi. Training on making biochar using palmyra shells called “CharTa”. Assistance is carried out by demonstrating plots of the intercropping system for mustard greens, kale, celery, long beans, spinach and pumpkin. Mentoring activities will continue until December 2023. After this PKM activity, it shows that the knowledge and skills of the young group and Mrs. GMIT Ebenhaezer Bilamun have increased regarding the implementation of the eco farming system in the church environment using “CharTa” (the name of the biochar product which has been protected according to Copyright No. EC202380592 dated 13 September 2023). The level of knowledge and skills that increased was the understanding of biochar (52.94% to 82.35%); eco farming system and intercropping planting system (41.18% to 100%); and land utilisation and farmer groups (52.94% to 100%). The results of the assistance will be obtained until this activity is completed in December 2023.

Abstract

The reliance of border communities on firewood as a primary energy source remains high due to limited access to modern energy. This study aims to examine the bioenergy potential of three locally available wood types commonly used by residents of Alas Selatan Village, Kobalima Timur District, Malaka Regency, East Nusa Tenggara: Leucaena leucocephala (Lamtoro), Tectona grandis (Teak), and Tamarindus indica (Tamarind). A descriptive quantitative and qualitative approach was employed. Laboratory tests were conducted to measure moisture content and ash content as indicators of combustion efficiency. Observations and interviews were carried out to explore community practices in the collection and storage of firewood. The results show that all three wood types exhibit low moisture content (<8%), with Tamarind having the lowest at 7.57%. In terms of ash content, Lamtoro proved to be the most efficient, producing only 1.3% ash, followed by Teak (2.355%) and Tamarind (4.725%). The community applies adaptive firewood storage methods, such as storing wood under stilt houses and above kitchen hearths (para-para), which facilitate effective drying. These findings indicate that the management of locally sourced wood-based bioenergy holds significant potential as a sustainable energy alternative in border regions, particularly when supported by technical education and appropriate conservation policies.

Abstract

Budidaya tomat (Solanum lycopersicum) merupakan salah satu kegiatan pertanian yang bernilai ekonomi tinggi dan membutuhkan efisiensi sumber daya, khususnya di daerah dengan keterbatasan air dan tenaga kerja seperti Nusa Tenggara Timur. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengestimasi energi atau tenaga kerja manusia yang dikeluarkan pada setiap tahapan budidaya tomat Servow hingga fase vegetatif dengan menggunakan sistem irigasi tetes. Metode yang digunakan meliputi survei, wawancara, observasi lapangan, serta pengukuran denyut nadi sebelum dan sesudah aktivitas. Estimasi energi dihitung menggunakan rumus fisiologis berdasarkan perbedaan denyut nadi, durasi kerja, berat badan, dan umur tenaga kerja. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa tahap perawatan tanaman memerlukan energi tertinggi sebesar 360,49 kkal, diikuti oleh tahap persiapan lahan (229,35 kkal), pemasangan irigasi (148,52 kkal), pengairan (147,00 kkal), dan penanaman (46,04 kkal). Aktivitas berintensitas tinggi seperti pemasangan ajir dan pembersihan gulma menyebabkan peningkatan denyut nadi hingga 40 denyut/menit. Temuan ini menekankan pentingnya penerapan prinsip ergonomi dan manajemen beban kerja dalam sistem pertanian berkelanjutan, serta menunjukkan hubungan signifikan antara intensitas kerja fisik dan pengeluaran energi.
