Abstract

Betao Riase Village, located in Sidenreng Rappang Regency, is known as a center for local durian production. However, during the peak harvest season, the village faces the issue of fruit oversupply, rendering a large portion of the durian unmarketable. To address this, students from the Community Service Program (KKN) of Universitas Muhammadiyah Parepare conducted a training on producing Dampo' durian jam as a form of product diversification. This initiative aims to enhance the community's knowledge and skills in processing durian into value-added products while creating opportunities for home-based entrepreneurship using local resources. The training was attended by 30 participants, consisting of housewives and members of farmer groups. The training process included material selection, processing, and basic packaging. The results showed strong enthusiasm from the participants and successful production of durian jam with a distinctive taste and promising market potential. Some participants have even started selling their products through local village bazaars. Beyond extending the shelf life of the fruit, the activity fostered entrepreneurial spirit and productive use of local potential. Further training in food packaging and digital marketing is recommended to ensure business sustainability. This activity highlights the strategic role of university students as agents of community empowerment in developing rural economies based on local potential.

Abstract

The ethnographic Community Service Program (KKN) in Betao Riase Village, Pitu Riawa District, Sidenreng Rappang Regency, was designed to address the socio-economic challenges of rural communities that rely on agricultural products without added value. Through an ethnographic approach, the KKN team conducted participatory observations and in-depth interviews to understand the local social and cultural structures as a basis for intervention. During the 40-day implementation, the program focused on four main areas: education and religion, facilities and infrastructure, economy and industry, and social and community. The results of the program include improving students' literacy skills, participation in religious activities, production of durian jam as an MSME product, and training in liquid organic fertilizer to support sustainable agriculture. Cooperation activities and the celebration of the 76th Anniversary of the Republic of Indonesia also strengthened the social cohesion of the community. Evaluations showed an increase in household income of up to 28.6%, a decrease in waste volume of up to 40%, and high community participation. This article confirms that the ethnographic approach in KKN is able to encourage community independence through collaboration between academics and residents, and provide a basis for development policies based on local potential and ecological awareness.
