Abstract

Tilapia is one of the freshwater fish that has been successfully cultivated by the people of Macang Sakti Village. Tilapia is rich in protein, fat, carbohydrates and other micronutrients that are good for growth and health. However, the high production rate of tilapia is not accompanied by the interest of the local community. This is because people prefer to consume wild freshwater fish obtained from rivers or swamps around. To increase consumer interest in tilapia, innovation is needed in the form of processing tilapia into fish nuggets by empowering women's groups as business actors. This effort also aims to increase family economic income. The location of Community Service was carried out in Macang Sakti Village, Sanga Desa District, Banyuasin Regency, South Sumatra, on October 22-26, 2023. The methods used were survey methods, counseling, discussions and demonstrations (practices) of processing tilapia into tilapia nuggets. The implementation of the activity was attended by more than 15 participants from among housewives with great enthusiasm. The results of this community service show that community service activities can increase participants' knowledge about the nutrition and benefits of tilapia and motivate them to actively consume and become entrepreneurs in tilapia processed products in the form of tilapia nuggets.

Abstract

Labels are an important factor in marketing a product, especially organic fertilizer products which have the provisions stipulated in the Minister of Agriculture No. 01 of 2019. This activity aims to provide knowledge about labels on organic fertilizer products and provide assistance in designing organic fertilizer labels. The method of implementing this service is in the form of socializing labels on organic fertilizers and assistance in designing organic fertilizer labels produced by Poktan Cemerlang as partners in this activity. The participants involved were 20 people who were members of the Cemerlang Poktan. The evaluation carried out in this activity was in the form of giving pre-test and post-test questionnaires related to understanding the labeling material on organic fertilizers. The results of this activity showed that there was an increase in participants' understanding of the labeling material for organic fertilizer products, from 24% (pre-test) to 77.5% (post-test). And Poktan Cemerlang has been able to design labels for liquid organic fertilizer products to be produced. However, for legality and distribution licenses that have not been completed on the label, it is hoped that there will be assistance for legality registration and distribution permits for organic fertilizer products so that they can be marketed.

Abstract

This community service initiative seeks to enhance the institutional capacity and professionalism of Village-Owned Enterprises (BUMDes) via a strategic methodology that includes initial assessment, interactive workshops, intense mentoring, and facilitation of business partnership execution. The activities were conducted in eight villages within Musi Banyuasin Regency, South Sumatra. The employed methodologies encompassed participative analyses of BUMDes profiles, training in the formulation of work plans and business ideas, and the enhancement of branding strategies. The findings indicated that all BUMDes successfully developed strategic documents, including firm profiles, collaboration proposals, and SWOT analyses. Five BUMDes have initiated preliminary collaborations with neighboring enterprises. The primary obstacles encountered consist of insufficient human resource capability, restricted technological utilization, and scant managerial expertise. This program enhances both technical and administrative capabilities while fostering the establishment of sustainable collaborative networks between villages and the corporate sector. Additional proposals encompass training in corporate digitization, mentoring in negotiation, and the establishment of a more flexible organizational structure. This program aims to serve as a prototype for village empowerment through strategic partnerships and enhanced institutional capacity, which may be replicated in other locations.

Abstract

Forest and land fires are recurring environmental problems in Musi Banyuasin Regency, particularly in areas dominated by forest landscapes and peatlands. This community engagement activity aimed to enhance community understanding and awareness of forest and land fire prevention and management through an educational and participatory socialization approach. The activity was conducted in Muara Merang Village, Bayung Lencir Subdistrict, and Pangkalan Bulian Village, Batanghari Leko Subdistrict, involving 45 participants representing village governments, Fire Care Community groups, farmer and forest farmer groups, youth organizations, and women’s groups. The implementation stages included an initial assessment and site selection, coordination with village stakeholders, pre-test administration, delivery of conceptual and technical materials, participatory discussions, and evaluation through post-test. The results indicate that the community’s initial understanding of forest and land fires was relatively adequate, with an average pre-test score of 6.2, although the understanding remained partial. After the socialization activity, participants’ understanding increased significantly, as reflected by an average post-test score of 9.25. Participatory discussions further revealed community needs for institutional strengthening, more intensive training, adequate equipment support, and sustainable land management alternatives without burning practices. These findings highlight the importance of community-based approaches as an initial step in strengthening local preparedness and sustainable forest and land fire prevention at the village level.

Abstract

One form of community-based health service is Posyandu. Generally, Posyandu cadres are members of the community who do not have a background as medical or health professionals, so in the field, they often face various obstacles and limitations in providing health services. This community service activity was conducted in Musi Banyuasin Regency. A total of 72 Posyandu and nutrition post cadres from nine villages, namely Babat Supat, Babat Ramba Jaya, Sukamaju, Letang, Tri Tunggal, Pangkalan Tungkal, Simpang Tungkal, Mangsang, and Muara Merang villages. The methods used were assessment, material delivery (education), and practice or demonstration. The pre-test and post-test scores showed that this activity succeeded in increasing the knowledge and abilities of Posyandu and nutrition post cadres. Cadres gained a better understanding of using anthropometry and determining the nutritional status of pregnant women, infants, and toddlers. In addition, cadres also better understood and were able to practice preparing balanced nutritious menus for Supplementary Feeding (PMT) at the Posyandu.
