Abstract

Feed supplement is useful as a growth promoter, increasing efficiency and feed consumption, helping digestion and metabolism, and improving the quality of livestock products. The aim of this community service is to apply appropriate technology to utilize mangosteen peel and turmeric as feed supplement for poultry in Sukanagalih Village, Tasikmalaya Regency, as well as produce quality feed supplement and improve the skills of farmers in processing the supplement feed. This community service activity is one of the Kosabangsa programs between the Universitas Perjuangan Tasikmalaya as the implementation team and the IPB University as the accompanying team. This activity started from September to December 2023 in Sukanagalih Village, Rajapolah District, Tasikmalaya Regency.

Abstract

The global prevalence of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is escalating, with projections indicating a continued upward trend. Indonesia, particularly in South Sulawesi, has also experienced a rise in DM prevalence over recent years. Comprehensive strategies for ineffective management are crucial to reduce the impact of DM. This community engagement took place at Bajeng Community Health Center in South Sulawesi from October to November 2023, involving 58 diabetic patients and 10 nurses in the Prolanis club. Activities included mini-lectures, active learning, and demonstrations, starting with coaching training for nurses by an international coach. Subsequent activities involved nurses conducting coaching sessions with patients, accompanied by the community engagement team. Statistical tests on knowledge and quality of life before and after coaching showed a significant improvement in both variables (p < 0.0001). Coaching interventions by trained nurses demonstrated a positive impact on the knowledge and quality of life of diabetic patients. The results of this activity provide a strong foundation to consider integrating coaching as an integral part of diabetes management strategies to enhance the health and well-being outcomes for patients.

Abstract

Financial literacy is a key focus at Sekolah Alam Kebun Tumbuh in Sawangan, Depok, Indonesia. The school integrates environmental engagement into its teaching and learning processes, aiming to achieve educational goals through positive role models and values. Recognizing the community’s limited financial knowledge, a primary community development initiative was established to address this gap. This program aims to enhance financial literacy among educators and parents, thereby fostering an entrepreneurial mindset in students. The program begins with the planning and execution of modules, which involve brainstorming and preliminary investigation. The initial phase included an introduction to entrepreneurship, followed by in-depth instruction on fundamental financial concepts and budgeting. Each training session included a pre-test to assess participants' initial skill levels and a post-test to measure progress. Additionally, participants gave presentations to evaluate their understanding post-training. The results indicate a significant improvement in participants' abilities to create financial models. Evaluations show enhanced financial and entrepreneurial skills among the participants. Feedback highlights the need for longer-term program sustainability and greater community involvement.

Abstract

The community service team conducted a mentoring program at the Asmoro Bangun Mask Arts Center in the Pakisaji District of Malang City, focusing on marketing management. The Arts Center as a tourist destination will be more widely known and capable of increasing the number of visits if its marketing is handled properly. This marketing mentoring emphasizes the completeness of a tourist destination, including the existence of promotional media that contains important and interesting information about this destination. In order to reach the target market, this mentoring begins with a study of the problems faced by the art center related to marketing. Market surveys are then conducted to map potential markets. From the results of these surveys, brochures are prepared as promotional media. In addition, the servants also provide insights and mentoring so that the group managing the art center has the skills to promote through social media using promotional materials directed by the servant team. In terms of products, namely facilities, and activities, the servants provide input on the arrangement of activities that can attract tourists from their arrival to their departure from this art center. This service is carried out within one semester, and its impact is measured by gathering responses from schools that have received brochures and proposals through the schools' official email. The results show that 40% of the schools that received emails responded positively and showed a significant interest in visiting this art center.

Abstract

The government, through Peraturan Presiden RI Nomor 44 Tahun 2020, mandates Indonesian Sustainable Palm Oil (ISPO) certification for smallholder farmers within five years of its enactment. However, by December 2022, only 32 farmer groups had achieved ISPO certification. The Gunung Ambat Farmers Group, which has already received funds from the PSR program, is one of the independent farmer groups with the potential to acquire ISPO accreditation. Yet, members' understanding of this certification remains low due to a lack of socialization or training from the government or other entities. This initiative aims to promote the regulation and provide training on the concepts and requirements for ISPO certification. Activities include administering questionnaires to assess knowledge, conducting training sessions, engaging in puzzle games, and practicing the documentation of farming activities. The results indicate significant improvements in farmers' understanding before and after the training. Initially, farmers had no knowledge of ISPO certification; however, post-training, over 70 percent of participants understood the certification, with an average of 35 percent comprehending its principles and criteria. Participants are also encouraged to document their farming progress, enhancing their skills in farming business documentation and administrative tasks.

Abstract

Pokdarwis "Zwageri Borneo" in Manunggal Jaya Village, Kutai Kartanegara Regency, prioritizes agricultural tourism. However, this tourism activity has been hindered by the lack of basic infrastructure. There is an adequate quantity of raw water from ex-mining ponds, but quality parameters such as turbidity, Fe, and Mn do not meet the required standards. To address this, a water treatment technology that is easy to operate and maintain—a combination of roughing filter and aeration—has been implemented. In this activity, a Water Treatment Plant (WTP) with a processing capacity of 46.3 l/minute has been constructed. Technology transfer and management assistance have been provided to Pokdarwis. Additionally, maps have been created to support tourism promotion. This initiative is expected to be sustainable with Pokdarwis independently managing the WTP facilities. Conservation of catchment areas is necessary to maintain the quantity and quality of raw water. Cross-sectoral collaboration with district and provincial tourism offices, village governments, and the private sector is essential to support Pokdarwis.

Abstract

In order to increase public understanding and awareness regarding the safety use of drugs and cosmetics, the Community Service Team of the Faculty of Pharmacy, Airlangga University has held community service in Jonggrangan Village, Klaten, Central Java. The community service was carried out on July 31, 2023, with approximately 60 family welfare programs or PKK cadres and health cadres participating through training, presentations, and discussions. The activity began with a pre-test, continued with training, a presentation of the material by three experts, and a discussion, then ended with giving a post-test to the participants. The results of the pre and post-test analysis showed that participants' understanding increased. The results of the analysis of the answers to the 15 questions given showed that the increase in participants' understanding ranged from  2.13-46.02 percent. The impact of these activities on society. The increase in participants' understanding of each topic is not the same depending on the initial understanding. However, the problem is that the level of public understanding after receiving training is still below 50 percent namely on topics about the stages of using cosmetic products and about drug classification. So it is necessary to deepen the material using other strategies (appropriate methods and media).

Abstract

Taxes are the main pillar of government development funding, as mandated by Indonesian law. The primary challenge at Erenos High School in South Tangerang is the lack of taxpayer awareness regarding tax compliance. There is an urgent need to change citizens' perspectives on fiscal education from an early age through systematic strategies, including curriculum and student activities. The education sector has welcomed the Directorate General of Taxes' initiative to include tax education in the curriculum, fostering tax awareness among the younger generation. The implementation process includes several phases: interviews and discussions, module preparation, presentations, training and discussions, and mentoring. The Community Service Team monitored the activities, observing significant student interest in the subject matter presented. The students' enthusiasm and high participation indicated strong curiosity, evidenced by the variety of questions directed at the speakers. The speakers' engagement in asking about the students' tax knowledge was clear from the final evaluation results, showing that 91.8% of participants felt they had begun to understand their responsibilities as taxpayers. This initiative aims to instill a sense of tax awareness early on, ensuring that future generations are well-informed and compliant with tax regulations, ultimately supporting government development efforts.
