<![CDATA[Farmers' reliance on synthetic chemical inputs in Tegal Sari Village poses a major constraint in peanut cultivation due to economic limitations. This community service program aims to enhance the self-reliance of the Inti Sari Farmers Group in producing biological agents through training on the propagation of Trichoderma sp. on cracked corn media, based on the principles of the Low External Input Sustainable Agriculture (LEISA) system. The implementation method comprised theoretical socialization, practical demonstration (workshop), as well as monitoring and evaluation. The results indicated a significant 55% increase in farmers' cognitive understanding, with the average score rising from 30% (pre-test) to 85% (post-test). Furthermore, the farmers successfully mastered aseptic inoculation techniques, as evidenced by the growth of high-quality Trichoderma spores on cracked corn media produced through their independent practice. In conclusion, this training was effective in equipping farmers with appropriate technology skills, enabling them to reduce production costs while promoting more environmentally friendly and sustainable peanut farming practices in Pante Ceureumen District.]]>
