Abstract

Zala Red Ginger SME is a micro-enterprise in South Lampung engaged in the production of processed red ginger. However, this business faces various obstacles, such as limited product diversification and production tools, as well as suboptimal use of digital marketing. These conditions have resulted in low production capacity and limited market access. This activity was carried out to address these problems by encouraging innovation in red ginger-based products while strengthening the digitalization of partner businesses. The purpose of this activity is to improve partner welfare through ginger product diversification, the application of technology in the production process, and the optimization of digital marketing to increase business competitiveness in the digital economy era. Implementation methods include socialization, training, technology application, mentoring and evaluation, which are carried out in a participatory manner with partners. The results of the activity implementation show a significant increase in several aspects of partner capacity. Knowledge of digital marketing strategies increased from 60% to 80%, readiness in utilizing production technology increased from 40% to 80%, while professional mindsets developed rapidly from 50% to 100%. Comparison of conditions before and after the activity indicates that participants not only gained additional conceptual insight, but also developed practical skills and demonstrated more modern and adaptive changes in attitudes in business management.

Abstract

This research aimed to study the characteristics of carbonized durian peel biobriquette using tar as a binder. A 1:10 ratio of binder and carbonized durian peel was used. The 25, 50, and 75% (coded as P1, P2, and P3, respectively) tar were used as a binder alongside tapioca flour to produce a binder with different tar concentrations. The briquette characteristics determined moisture content, ash content, calorific value, density, and water-absorbing capacity. Moisture content ranged from 9.32% to 9,41% for treatments P1 to P3, while the ash content ranged from 12,29% to 13,09%, showing no significant difference among the treatments. Massive difference was observed in calorific value, as P1 gives 5106/35 cal g-1 calorific value while P2 and P3 give 9267.56 and 9694.53 cal g-1, respectively. The density observed was relatively low, ranging from 0.5029 g cm-3 to 0,5685 g cm-2. As for water-absorbing capacity, P3 absorbed the least amount of water, 29.43%. From this research, we can conclude that coconut shell tar has the potential to be utilized as a binder in forming biobriquette from carbonized durian peel.

Abstract

Pempek is a fish-based food product that is highly susceptible to spoilage due to its elevated water and protein content, which fosters microbial growth. The reliance on conventional plastic packaging, such as polypropylene, raises environmental concerns, underscoring the need for alternative, more eco-friendly packaging solutions that enhance product safety. This study aimed to utilize bioplastics derived from corn cob cellulose and chitosan as active packaging to mitigate the deterioration of pempek during storage. The research involved extracting corn cob cellulose via the organosolv method, fabricating bioplastics via solution casting, packaging the pempek, and assessing Total Plate Count (TPC) and pH levels over 4 days of storage at room temperature. The findings revealed that the active bioplastic significantly inhibited microbial growth. The TPC of pempek packaged in bioplastic was 1–2 logs lower than that of the control on days 2-4. Additionally, the pH of the bioplastic-preserved pempek declined from 6.75 to 5.46, whereas the control increased from 7.77 to 8.17, indicating microbial spoilage. These results suggest that bioplastic incorporating corn cob cellulose and chitosan effectively slows deterioration, enhances microbiological safety, and presents a viable, environmentally friendly packaging alternative for food products.
