Abstract

West Sumatra has a high potential of coconut resources with most of it being processed for copra products. The pandemic situation in recent years has caused the price of copra products to fluctuate, so an alternative coconut processing is needed. Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) is an alternative coconut product that can increase economic value of coconut and is needed as a supplement that can strengthen the body's immune system during the Covid-19 pandemic. One of the efforts to train the community to be able to process coconut into VCO is to conduct training activities that are directly located in the coconut farmer cluster, which is carried out in Sungai Sirah Village, South Coast District, West Sumatra. This community service activity aims to increase the competence of farmers in the village so that they can process the coconut produced into VCO, hence help their economy when the price of copra drops. The stages of the activity start from socialization, presentation on production process, and continued with demonstrating how to make VCO. Participants were divided into several small groups where they could immediately practice how to make this VCO with the correct fermentation steps. After the manufacturing process is well understood, the next step was training of how to do packaging and marketing. Farmers were trained on how to package products in order to get good quality product and then trained to sell VCO through online shop such as Facebook, Instagram, Tokopedia, etc. This activity helps add more insight in terms of processing and marketing, in which participants increase their knowledge and competence to form the basis for entrepreneurship of coconut processed products.

Abstract

The agricultural sector is one of the main pillars of the economy in Koto Tangah District. Increasing agricultural production requires the support of fertilizer availability in terms of quantity and price. In order to provide fertilizer at competitive prices, fertilizers are needed at low prices and are environmentally friendly. This community service activity is given to the community in Lubuk Minturun Village in the form of training in the manufacture of liquid organic fertilizer (POC) with a fermentation process and extracts of lemongrass. The main ingredient of this fertilizer is rice waste which can be easily collected by local people. The training covers the process of making fertilizer, the fermentation process to packaging. Lemongrass extract is added to increase nutrients in the soil and reduce odors from the fermentation process. The proposing team took this theme in order to provide an alternative for making POCs to the community in Lubuk Minturun Village in the hope of contributing to local flower or fruit plant nurseries. In this case, the proposing team took Lubuk Minturun Village as a model because this area is located close to the ATI Padang Polytechnic Campus, so that it can help the lives of the people around the campus.
