Abstract

The Special Branch of Muhammadiyah Malaysia accommodates Indonesian Migrant Workers (IMW) from the Kampung Bharu, Kampung Pandan, and Kepong areas. The main problem that arises for IMW is the economy. One activity that can help the IMW economy in Malaysia is entrepreneurship through fish farming. Freshwater fish farming has good prospects for development and can be used as a source of income. However, feed costs can reach 60-70% of fish production costs, so it is necessary to find alternatives to replace commercial feed with good nutritional quality and lower prices, including maggots. This activity aims to improve the knowledge and skills of partners in cultivating maggots as an alternative feed in fish farming. This activity is research-based community empowerment as a transfer of knowledge and technology to target partners to improve knowledge and skills about maggot farming. Community service activities are carried out using participatory and collaborative approaches; partners actively participate in activities and collaborate. Community service activities are carried out in 5 stages: coordination of activity preparation with partners, counseling on maggots, potential and how to cultivate them, maggot farming training, mentoring, and activity evaluation. The program's success rate was measured using the one-group pre-test and post-test. The results of the activity showed that 85% of partner members understood the potential of maggots and how to cultivate them from the previous 52.5% (exceeding the target of 80%); 85% were able to implement maggot cultivation from the previous 40% (exceeding the target of 80%). The evaluation showed that this community service activity could help partners overcome the problem of providing cheap and potential alternative fish feed and fish cultivation problems. Based on the evaluation, there needs to be a continuation of the program to assist partners in overcoming various problems to improve the economy, one of which is through fish cultivation.

Abstract

The fish feed production and maggot business managed by the Mina Mandiri fish farming group have quite promising economic prospects. However, for both businesses to develop sustainably, the implementation of planned business management is required. This activity aims to strengthen the management capacity of partner businesses through the development of marketing strategies, the implementation of orderly bookkeeping, and effective and efficient financial management. Partners in this community service activity are the Mina Mandiri Fish Farming and maggot Group in Panembangan Village, Banyumas Regency. The implementation of the activity uses a participatory approach. The series of activities includes socialization, program implementation, mentoring, and evaluation. The success of the program was measured using the one-group pre-test and post-test method. The evaluation results showed that 82.5% of partner members have understood and are able to implement marketing strategies well. In addition, 80% of partner members are able to understand and implement business bookkeeping, while 85% of partner members have understood and implemented financial management more orderly. One significant change resulting from this activity was the establishment of separate business bookkeeping from personal financial records. Although the program has yielded positive results, evaluations of the program indicate the need for further mentoring. The program's sustainability is expected to help partners overcome various challenges in fish feed and maggot production, while strengthening their business management capabilities for sustainable growth.
