Abstract

Processing agricultural waste into value-added products is an important step in supporting sustainable agriculture. One of the wastes that has great potential to be processed is tobacco stem waste, which is often considered as waste without value. This educational activity aims to provide knowledge and skills to farmers in processing tobacco stem waste into liquid organic fertilizer. This education is carried out through a participatory approach, involving counseling, technical demonstrations, and direct practice. The results of the activity showed that participants were able to understand the importance of waste management in supporting agricultural sustainability. Participants also succeeded in practicing the process of processing tobacco stem waste into liquid organic fertilizer, which includes shredding, fermentation using local microorganisms, and packaging the final product. The positive impacts of this activity include increasing farmer awareness of waste management, reducing dependence on chemical fertilizers, and cost efficiency in their farming systems. In addition, the application of liquid organic fertilizer from tobacco stems can also increase soil fertility naturally and support environmental conservation efforts. However, there are several challenges in implementing this activity, such as the lack of supporting facilities and the need for further assistance to ensure the sustainability of technology adoption by farmers. Overall, this educational activity has a positive impact on improving farmer skills and innovative waste management, while supporting more environmentally friendly and sustainable agriculture.

Abstract

Kelompok Tani “Tani Mulyo I” Desa Gentungan, Kecamatan Mojogedang, Karanganyar, Telah melakukan pertanian organik bersertifikasi, namun hasil panen sering tidak bisa optimal baik kuantitas maupun kualitas, serta biaya sarana pupuk organik masih mahal. Solusi teknis dan ekonomis yang dapat ditempuh adalah pengembangan inovasi baru tentang bahan baku dan cara pembuatan pupuk organik dari bahan lokal. Tujuan dari kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini sebagai bentuk pemberdayaan masyarakat melalui pelatihan pembuatan MOL (Mikro Organisme Lokal) dan pupuk cair organik dari bahan lokal yang mudah diperoleh dan mampu meningkatkan kuantitas, kualitas hasil padi serta meningkatkan efisiensi usaha tani padi organik. Metode yang diterapakan dalam kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini adalah metode pelatihan secara partisipatif yang diawali dengan Focus Group Discussion (FGD) berikutnya penentuan materi, pelaksanaan hingga evaluasi. Hasil dari Pengabdian Masyarakat telah meningkatkan ilmu pengetahuan 86% peserta memahami bahan dasar MOL dan pupuk cair organik dan 90% memahami proses pembuatanya. Ketramilan peserta meningkat dalam praktik pembuatan, bahwa 85% peserta dapat melakukan pembuatan MOL dan pupuk cair organik dan 100% petani mampu mengimplementasikan MOL (Mikro Organisme Lokal) dan pupuk organik cair di lahan Demplot. Dari hasil implementasi MOL dan pupuk cair organik di lahan Demplot telah meningkatkan pertumbuhan vegetatif dan hasil padi organik jenis padi Pandan Wangi, jenis Merah dan jeis Hitam

Abstract

The market prospects and price stability of Javanese long pepper (Piper retrofractum Vahl) indicate that this commodity has the potential to generate profit and bolster the economy as a leading commodity in Wonogiri Regency, particularly in Paranggupito District. To capitalize on these opportunities, the produced yields must adhere to specific standards, notably organic certification. This community service initiative aimed to enhance farmers' technical proficiency in the production and implementation of organic fertilizers, as well as to improve their capacity in implementing quality control systems. The program was conducted in Gudangharjo Village, Paranggupito District, Wonogiri Regency, utilizing the Farmer Field School (FFS) methodology. The outcomes of this activity include: (1) An increase in farmers' knowledge regarding Javanese long pepper cultivation through the application of both solid and liquid organic fertilizer technologies. (2) The establishment of demonstration plots (demplots) to facilitate direct participation in organic cultivation practices aligned with organic Good Agricultural Practices (GAP). (3) The successful formulation of organic GAP Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) by farmers, serving as a formal guideline for cultivation to ensure uniform and high-quality organic Javanese long pepper production.
