This community service program aims to strengthen the capacity of the Sahabat Tani Farmers Group to utilize digital technology for marketing cocoa and Kampung Unggul Balitbangtan (KUB) chickens in Wae Munde Preparatory Village, East Manggarai Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. The program adopted a participatory approach involving socialization, mentoring, and hands-on practice. Program effectiveness was assessed using pre-test and post-test instruments, with the results analyzed descriptively. The findings indicate a substantial improvement in participants' understanding of digital marketing, with the mean score increasing from 5% on the pre-test to 93% on the post-test, representing an increase of 88 percentage points. All participants successfully created digital marketing accounts and independently uploaded their products. These findings demonstrate that the program effectively enhanced farmers' knowledge and skills in digital marketing. The initiative is expected to expand market reach, increase product value, and promote the sustainable economic empowerment of the farmers' group.
