<![CDATA[Organic waste management at the community level continues to face challenges, including the underutilization of agricultural waste and the reliance on manual administrative practices within farmer groups. These conditions hinder the implementation of green economy principles and the strengthening of community institutions. This community service program aimed to enhance the capacity of the Arso IX Farmer Group through the implementation of appropriate technology in the form of a composting system and a web-based Farmer Group Information System (Sistem Informasi Kelompok Tani—SIKT). The program employed the Participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA) approach, encompassing needs assessment, socialization, training, technology implementation, mentoring, and evaluation. The results demonstrated that community members were able to process organic waste into compost using the composter while utilizing SIKT to manage member data, harvest records, transactions, and administrative reports. The integration of appropriate technology and information systems contributed to improved community capacity in organic waste management, strengthened farmer group administration, and supported the sustainable implementation of a community-based green economy.]]>
