The average banana production in Pakemitan Village is 9.2 tons/year. The jackfruit and ambon bananas dominate nearly 63.84% of the total banana production in Pakemitan Village. When the number of harvests increases, jackfruit and ambon bananas were not sold in the market. With abundant and cheap bananas, and unhygienic drying of sale bananas using sunlight, it is necessary to encourage housewives to convert bananas into sale bananas and drying them with biomass drying technology. The training implementation method starts from program socialization, theoretical training on making banana sale, preparation of tools and materials, and field practice of making banana sale and drying it with biomass dryer.
