Abstract

Tempel Village, located in Demak Regency, Central Java, is an example of a village whose waters experience eutrophication or the enrichment of water bodies from minerals and nutrients, which is characterized by the uncontrolled growth of water hyacinth weeds. This is due to the delivery from the river flow in the area above which is added with excess nutrients from the rice fields. One way to deal with eutrophication is by reducing the use of inorganic fertilizers or replacing them with organic fertilizers. The implementation of this community education program aims to increase public awareness of the existence of water hyacinth weeds which have a negative impact on the ecosystem and their solutions. The method of implementing activities includes field observations followed by outreach and training with related parties. The outreach was carried out to provide information about the causes of water hyacinth due to eutrophication related to agricultural problems. Activities continued with the Clean River program to reduce water hyacinth biomass. The training includes making compost and liquid organic fertilizer as well as biobriquettes from water hyacinth. The results of the final discussion regarding inviting program work showed that public understanding of the water hyacinth problem had increased from the results of the initial discussion before this series of outreach activities was held. It is hoped that this community outreach program can increase the knowledge of the people of Tempel Village in understanding the negative impacts of water hyacinth as a weed and how to handle it to balance the ecosystem and prevent flood disasters.

Abstract

The use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides in Tempel Village has exceeded the recommended limits. The continuous cultivation pattern of shallots and the minimal land management have also led to difficulties in controlling pests and diseases, as well as a decline in soil quality. Improving soil quality can be achieved through the application of organic materials. One source of organic materials can be obtained from agricultural waste. On the other hand, agricultural waste such as rice husks and straw are available in large quantities. Additionally, eutrophication has led to uncontrolled growth of water hyacinth in water bodies. Until now, the abundant agricultural waste and water hyacinth in Tempel Village have not been utilized effectively. This program aims to utilize agricultural waste for fertilizer and soil amendment, as well as to raise farmers' awareness of the importance of sustainable farming concepts. The methods used include field observations, focused group discussions, socialization, and training. The training program conducted for farmers includes the production of biochar and compost. Through this program, farmers understand the dangers of intensive farming systems with excessive use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Farmers also learn how to produce biochar and compost from agricultural waste. Based on the activities carried out, it can be concluded that the abundant agricultural waste and water hyacinth can be utilized as fertilizer and soil amendments, contributing to the implementation of sustainable farming systems.
