Abstract

Pandankrajan Village, Kemlagi District, Mojokerto Regency, has a social forestry area managed collaboratively with PT. Perhutani, offering potential for agroforestry development. However, community land use for intercropping (e.g., corn and cassava) remains suboptimal. This community service program aims to enhance land productivity by introducing Xanthosoma undipes (Beneng taro) as an agroforestry-based intercrop. The community service activities were conducted from April 21 to 25, 2025, with methods included: (1) coordination with farmer groups and land mapping, (2) socialization of Beneng taro cultivation techniques, (3) field surveys for land suitability analysis, (4) hands-on agroforestry training, and (5) participatory evaluation with farmers.** Beneng taro was selected for its shade tolerance, high economic value, and potential as an alternative food source. Results showed farmers' enthusiasm in adopting cultivation techniques and recognizing its economic benefits. The program is expected to strengthen food security, increase income, and promote environmental conservation through sustainable agroforestry. Stakeholder collaboration and technological innovation are key to ensuring long-term sustainability.

Abstract

Low environmental awareness in schools, particularly in the utilization of vacant land, organic waste management, and the need for greening, is the background for this community service program. The objective of the activity is to increase the awareness and skills of school members in environmental conservation. This community service program was implemented as part of the Tri Dharma Perguruan Tinggi (Three Pillars of Higher Education) at SMP and SMAS Karya Gedeg, Ngares Village, Mojokerto Regency. The methods used included field reviews, socialization, practical demonstrations of tree planting and organic fertilizer production (solid and liquid compost), student mentoring, as well as monitoring and evaluation. As an integral part of the program, a School Waste Bank was also established to manage inorganic waste and introduce the circular economy to students. The results of the activities showed high enthusiasm from the participants. Some of the tangible achievements included the planting of trees in the school area, the successful demonstration of organic fertilizer production, and the operation of a waste bank managed by the Student Council. The impacts included increased environmental awareness, skills in processing organic waste, the creation of green spaces, and a culture of waste sorting among students. In conclusion, this program has successfully fostered awareness among the younger generation and provided practical skills in preserving the ecosystem. For sustainability, it is recommended that schools continue the program consistently, students apply their knowledge at home, and local governments provide support. This activity has the potential to become a model for school-based environmental management that can be replicated in other regions.
