Abstract

This community service program aimed to enhance community capacity in producing and utilizing organic liquid fertilizer to support environmentally friendly agricultural practices in Suka Merindu Village, West Pemulutan Subdistrict, Ogan Ilir Regency. The activity was conducted using a participatory approach that positioned the community as active participants throughout the process. The program stages included initial socialization with community leaders, identification of local potential and problems through focus group discussions, hands-on training on organic liquid fertilizer production using locally available organic waste, and post-training mentoring and monitoring to ensure sustainability. The results indicate that the training program effectively improved participants’ knowledge and technical skills, as evidenced by a substantial increase in post-test scores compared to pre-test results. Participants also reported high levels of satisfaction with the training materials, facilitation, and practical sessions. Furthermore, most participants began applying organic liquid fertilizer in their farming practices, demonstrating the practical relevance and sustainability of the program outcomes. In addition to technical improvements, the activity increased community awareness of the environmental and economic benefits of reducing dependence on chemical fertilizers and utilizing organic waste more productively. Overall, this community service program demonstrates that participatory training on organic liquid fertilizer production can serve as an effective strategy for promoting sustainable agriculture, strengthening farmers’ economic resilience, and encouraging environmentally responsible resource management in rural areas.

Abstract

Waste management remains a critical issue in Indonesia, driven by rapid population growth and the increasing volume of household waste that has not been properly addressed. In Meranjat II Village, Indralaya Selatan Subdistrict, Ogan Ilir Regency, waste is still predominantly managed through conventional practices such as open burning or direct disposal into rivers and fields, which contributes to environmental pollution and health risks. To address this challenge, a community service program was introduced to enhance residents’ knowledge and awareness by implementing waste banks as an environmentally friendly and economically beneficial solution. The program engaged residents in socialization sessions, group discussions, and practical waste-sorting activities. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and questionnaires, and analyzed using a descriptive quantitative approach to assess community acceptance. The results revealed significant improvements, with 80% of participants understanding the importance of waste separation, 90% demonstrating greater concern for environmental cleanliness, and 74% expressing willingness to participate in the waste bank program actively. Nevertheless, challenges remain, including limited supporting facilities, low environmental literacy, and uneven participation. Continuous support from village authorities and other stakeholders is essential to ensure the program’s success and sustainability. Overall, this initiative not only raised environmental awareness but also created opportunities for community-based economic empowerment through sustainable waste management.
