Abstract

Agricultural land in Papua suffers from a deficiency of macro-nutrients essential for plant growth. This shortfall is attributed to the prevalence of utisol soil types, which make up 49.21% of the total land area. However, by implementing suitable processing technologies and innovative practices, livestock waste can be transformed into a high-value product. The innovative processing of livestock waste into fertilizer has the potential to enhance soil structure and fulfill the nutritional needs of plants. The Tunas Siaga Livestock Farmer Group and the Tunas Bangsa Youth Organization, facing challenges in the production and marketing of livestock waste products, have been identified as the target partners for this initiative. A field observation study revealed that only 20% of the total livestock waste is currently utilized for composting. The proposed solution involves using livestock waste, supplemented by natural phosphate, to improve product marketability, quality, and quantity. To achieve this goal, a comprehensive training program will be initiated, consisting of the following components: (1) training on processing livestock waste into solid and liquid organic fertilizers, enhanced by Krandalite Phosphate Deposited Soil (KPDS); (2) training in product packaging and marketing. The training program will be delivered through a combination of digital and traditional marketing channels. The effectiveness of this initiative will be assessed through a pretest and posttest administered to participants during the activities. Evaluation results indicate that the innovation involving the inclusion of KPDS in solid and liquid organic fertilizers is likely to be well-received by the target partners. Additionally, evaluation findings demonstrated that most participants experienced a significant increase in knowledge and skills in livestock waste management, with an overall improvement of 64.4%. This increase was evident in the pretest and posttest results, which showed an average score improvement among participants.

Abstract

The purpose of this program is to increase the knowledge and skills of farmer group members in making compost and liquid organic fertilizer, as well as increasing knowledge related to the application of GAP to increase production in developing and supporting the existing community economy, especially members of the Tirta Arum farmer group. The method applied in the service activity consists of several stages of activities including field surveys, socialization stages, focus group discussions (FGDs) and training, as well as monitoring and evaluation of program success. From this activity, it can be seen that the production capacity of compost and liquid organic fertilizer has increased as a business activity development of the Tirta Arum farmer group. Previously, the production of compost fertilizer reached 1 ton and liquid organic fertilizer 400 liters every month. After the activity, the production of compost reached 2 tons and liquid organic fertilizer 450 liters per month. The application of GAP in making compost and liquid organic fertilizer shows an increase in productivity. Tirta Arum farmer group is able to optimize existing resources to produce compost and liquid organic fertilizer.
