Abstract

Evaluating the Impact of a Women's Empowerment Program on Environmental Sustainability through Eco-Friendly Fertilizer Production. The high potential in Grenden Village as a corn producer has the side effect of increasing corn plant waste. Most people do not utilize corn waste, especially corn cobs. Corn waste is rich in organic matter and can be reused for plant fertilization. Corn cobs can be used as an alternative fertilizer that can replace the role of chemical fertilizers. PPK Ormawa Team of HMPS S1 Science Education ASE held training for village residents through the Gayati Women's School to provide education and practical activities to residents to utilize corn waste as organic fertilizer. This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a training program in teaching local women to utilize corn cobs as organic fertilizer. This research was conducted using a descriptive qualitative method that focuses on describing the results obtained in real terms based on conditions in the field. Data were collected through observation, activity documentation, and interviews. The implementation of the activity was carried out in Grenden Village, Puger District in August 2024. The target of this activity was mothers who were members of the Gayatri Women's School, totaling around 20 people. The object of this activity is corn cobs which are one of the local wastes in Grenden Village. Evaluation of this activity through the results of the pretest and post-test shows that education and training in making fertilizer from Corn Cobs have a positive impact on the community such as waste reduction, economic improvement, soil health, and empowerment education.

Abstract

Suci Village, located in the Panti District of Jember Regency, boasts an abundance of coffee potential that has largely been underutilized for commercial purposes. To increase its added value and empower the local community, the Community Partnership Program (PKM) introduced a training program for producing coffee-based aromatherapy candles at Sekolah Alam Nusantara. The program employed a participatory approach, involving 20 participants, primarily homemakers, and consisted of three stages: material delivery, hands-on practice, and evaluation. Pre- and post-tests were used to evaluate knowledge improvement. The results demonstrated a substantial increase in community knowledge and skills. Before the training, only 25% of the participants were familiar with aromatherapy candles. After the program, however, all of the participants understood their benefits and basic production techniques. The candles produced exhibited a distinctive coffee aroma, functional value, and potential to become environmentally friendly, flagship products of Suci Village. This initiative strengthened the community's capacity to utilize natural resources, encouraged creative entrepreneurship, and supported circular economy practices. This study contributes to the literature on community empowerment by demonstrating how local commodities, such as coffee, can be transformed into valuable products. Furthermore, the study provides a replicable model for sustainable rural development through skill-based training and product innovation.
