Abstract

The community service program implemented in Kertajaya Village, Sumur Subdistrict, Pandeglang Regency, Banten Province, aims to enhance the market value and competitiveness of salted fish products, which constitute one of the primary economic commodities of this coastal community. The majority of residents depend on fisheries and seafood processing for their livelihoods; however, production activities still rely heavily on traditional sun drying techniques that are vulnerable to weather variability. This condition leads to inconsistent product quality, unstable production capacity, and limited access to broader markets. To address these challenges, the program introduces a series of structured capacity building activities targeted at youth organizations (karang taruna) and local salted fish processors. The training focuses on processing innovations, improved hygiene practices, modern packaging design, branding strategies, microenterprise management, and the utilization of digital marketing platforms. A participatory and inclusive approach is adopted to ensure that community members are actively involved in planning, implementing, and sustaining the activities, thereby shifting their role from passive beneficiaries to empowered local entrepreneurs. The initiative is expected to stimulate the growth of creative and competitive coastal business actors, increase household income, and strengthen the village’s identity as a center for value added salted fish production. Furthermore, the program provides a replicable model for community empowerment rooted in local potential, economic resilience, and environmental sustainability in coastal regions.

Abstract

Sumberjaya Village is a coastal community known as a traditional salted-fish production center, supported by abundant marine resources such as anchovy, grouper, tuna, snapper, and shrimp. Despite its potential, the drying process still relies heavily on conventional sun drying, making production vulnerable to weather conditions. During the rainy season, production frequently halts, product quality declines, and community income drops significantly. Through the BIMA Community Service Grant Program, the implementing team introduced an innovative Solar-Powered Greenhouse Dryer to address these challenges. This technology enables year-round drying in a hygienic, efficient, and environmentally friendly manner, producing cleaner and longer-lasting salted fish with higher market value. In addition to technological intervention, the program also provided training in business management, basic financial recording, digital marketing, and product legality assistance, including PIRT, NIB, and halal labeling. This integrated approach strengthened production capacity, enhanced community skills, and reinforced local institutional resilience. Overall, the synergy between appropriate technology and community capacity building has transformed Sumberjaya Village into a model of modern green-technology-based salted-fish processing, serving as a best-practice example of sustainable coastal economic empowerment in Indonesia.
