Abstract

Natural inert dust has been used as a grain protectant since the ancient Aztecs of Mexico to this modern era. Natural inert dust is divided into three groups: the first group includes sand, kaolin, paddy husk ash, wood ash, and clay; the second group includes mineral dust; and the third group includes natural silicas such as diatomaceous earth and zeolite. Natural inert dust has a unique mechanism for killing insect pests. Inert dust particles penetrate the insects’ exoskeleton, causing dehydration through the cuticle. Relative humidity is a crucial factor affecting the efficacy of inert dust application. Inert dust has been traditionally used by farmers, which impacts the insects, such as decreasing population, no insect resistance, and being environmentally friendly. Problems of using inert dust include visible residues on grain, airborne dust, reduced flowability, bulk density reduction, and adverse effects on downstream processing machinery. Moreover, inert dust is a very light product, thus it may cause human respiratory illness. The inert dust can be applied to the smaller or larger storage containers. Natural silica can be readily integrated into modern agriculture as a pest management solution.

Abstract

Kelurahan Baju Bodoa memiliki luas daerah 3,76 km2 dan populasi sekitar 6.617 orang terbagi dalam tiga lingkungan dan empat kampung. Sumber daya alam di sektor pertanian Kelurahan Baju Bodoa terbilang sangat berpotensi jika dikembangkan menjadi sebuah inovasi baru yang bernilai ekonomi. Berdasarkan hasil observasi langsung oleh mahasiswa Program Penguatan Kapasitas Organisasi Kemahasiswaan (PPK Ormawa) Kelompok Mahasiswa Penalaran Ilmiah Pertanian Universitas Hasanuddin (KM Pilar Unhas), sebagian besar kelurahan tersebut merupakan lahan sawah yang masih menjadi sumber utama pendapatan penduduk Kelurahan Baju Bodoa. Namun, profesi petani di daerah ini didominasi oleh penduduk yang berusia di atas 35 tahun, sehingga disimpulkan bahwa terjadi penurunan minat pemuda untuk terlibat dalam sektor pertanian. Di sisi lain, mahasiswa KM Pilar Unhas melihat bahwa pemuda Kelurahan Baju Bodoa memiliki potensi besar untuk dijadikan sebagai mitra karena sudah mempunyai lembaga sebelumnya yaitu karang taruna. Namun, para pemuda tersebut, belum mempunyai usaha tani yang memadai. Tim PPK Ormawa KM Pilar Unhas memiliki alternatif solusi, untuk membentuk sanggar tani muda, melalui program yang dinamai Rumah Jamur (Raja) Farmer meliputi kegiatan pengelolaan potensi pertanian di Kelurahan Baju Bodoa yaitu budidaya jamur tiram. Tujuan dari kegiatan ini adalah membentuk sanggar tani muda, membentuk kurikulum, dan menghasilkan produk jamur tiram. Metode yang dilakukan pada kegiatan ini berupa pelatihan teknis, pendampingan berkelanjutan, pengadaan sarana dan prasarana, pengembangan produk turunan, pengelolaan usaha dan pemasaran, pelaksanaan launching rumah jamur, pengukuhan sanggar tani muda serta monitoring dan evaluasi. Hasil dari kegiatan ini adalah terbentuknya sanggar tani muda yang beranggotakan delapan belas orang, terbentuknya rumah jamur dan terbentuknya kurikulum non-formal. ABSTRACT Baju Bodoa Subdistrict covers an area of 3.76 km2 with a population of around 6,617 people, divided into three neighborhoods and four villages. The natural resources in the agricultural sector of Baju Bodoa Subdistrict hold significant potential for development into innovative economic ventures. Based on direct observations conducted by students of Program Penguatan Kapasitas Organisasi Kemahasiswaan (PPK Ormawa) Kelompok Mahasiswa Penalaran Ilmiah Pertanian Universitas Hasanuddin (KM Pilar Unhas), most of the subdistrict consists of rice fields, which remain the primary source of income for the residents of Baju Bodoa Subdistrict. However, the farming profession in this area is dominated by residents aged over 35 years old, indicating a decline in youth interest in engaging in the agricultural sector. On the other hand, KM Pilar Unhas students identified that the youth of Baju Bodoa Subdistrict had significant potential to become partners as they are already organized under a youth organization called Karang Taruna. Nevertheless, these young people have not yet established adequate farming ventures. The PPK Ormawa KM Pilar Unhas team proposes an alternative solution by forming a young farmers’ group through a program named “Rumah Jamur (Raja) Farmer”, which involves managing the agricultural potential of Baju Bodoa Subdistrict, specifically through oyster mushroom cultivation. This activity aims to establish a young farmers’ group, develop a curriculum, and produce oyster mushroom products. The methods employed in this activity include technical training, continuous mentoring, procurement of facilities and infrastructure, development of derivative products, business manajemen and marketing, launching of the mushroom house, the inauguration of the young farmer’s group and monitoring and evaluation. The results of this activity include forming a young farmers’ group consisting of eighteen members, establishing a mushroom house, and creating a non-formal curriculum. Keywords: Oyster mushroom, karang taruna, technical training, derivative products, mushroom house, young farmers.

Abstract

Kelompok Tani Cendrana 1 dan 2 menghadapi tantangan rendahnya produktivitas padi akibat penggunaan benih berkualitas rendah dan kurangnya benih yang adaptif terhadap perubahan iklim. Hal ini disebabkan oleh terbatasnya ketersediaan benih unggul di Kabupaten Barru. Sebagai solusi yang ditawarkan, kedua mitra dilatih untuk memproduksi benih padi varietas genjah yang lebih resilien terhadap perubahan iklim. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pendapatan petani dan menunjang kemandirian perbenihan dengan memproduksi benih padi varietas genjah di Kelompok Tani Cendrana 1 dan 2. Metode yang diterapkan meliputi sosialisasi program pengabdian, pelatihan produksi benih unggul mulai dari awal hingga pemasaran benih serta para kelompok tani dilatih memproduksi kompos dari sumberdaya organik, serta dilakukan pendampingan pembuatan demplot perbenihan padi. Hasil yang dicapai menunjukkan bahwa Kelompok Tani Cendrana 1 dan 2 kini mampu memproduksi benih secara mandiri dan meningkatkan hasil panen. Pada Kelompok Tani Cendrana 1, hasil panen varietas Cakrabuana meningkat dari 3,05 ton/ha (kontrol) menjadi 4,14 ton/ha setelah pemupukan, sedangkan pada Kelompok Tani Cendrana 2, hasil panen varietas Padjajaran meningkat dari 5,2 ton/ha (kontrol) menjadi 6,7 ton/ha. Pendapatan yang semula Rp. 550.000.000,- kini menjadi Rp. 1.265.000.000,- Program ini berkontribusi signifikan terhadap peningkatan produktivitas padi dan kemandirian benih unggul di Kabupaten Barru. Dengan keberlanjutan program ini, diharapkan dapat meningkatkan kesejahteraan pada Kelompok Tani Cendrana 1 dan 2. Kata kunci: Benih unggul, hasil panen, kemandirian perbenihan, kelompok tani, padi genjah, perubahan iklim, produktivitas. ABSTRACT Cendrana Farmer Groups 1 and 2 face the challenge of low rice productivity due to the use of low-quality seeds and the lack of seeds that are adaptive to climate change. This is due to the limited availability of superior seeds in the Barru District. As a solution, Cendrana Farmer Groups 1 and 2 were trained to produce early-maturing rice seeds more resilient to climate change. This community service activity aims to increase farmers' income and support seed independence by producing early-maturing rice seeds in Cendrana Farmer Groups 1 and 2. The methods applied include socialization of the service program, training in superior seed production from the beginning to seed marketing farmer groups are trained to produce compost from organic resources, and assistance in making rice seedling demonstration plots. The results show that Cendrana Farmer Groups 1 and 2 can now produce seeds independently and increase yields. In Cendrana Farmer Group 1, the yield of the Cakrabuana variety increased from 3.05 tons/ha (control) to 4.14 tons/ha after fertilization, while in Cendrana Farmer Group 2, the yield of the Padjajaran variety increased from 5.2 tons/ha (control) to 6.7 tons/ha. The income that was initially IDR. 550,000,000 is now IDR. 1,265,000,000 This program significantly contributes to the increase in rice productivity and superior seed independence in the Regency. Keywords: Climate change, early-maturing rice, farmers' group, harvest yield, productivity, seed independence, superior seeds.
