Abstract

Lawang Agung Village is situated in Air Periukan District, Seluma Regency, directly adjacent to plantation land owned by PT. Agri Andalas. Waste empty palm fruit bunches (TKKS) or 'jangkos' are an organic compost that can support plant growth. This community service aims to provide training and practical experience in seeding and breeding UNIB hybrid chilies using jangkos compost as an organic medium. In its implementation, activities begin with training, preparing seeds, tools, and materials. They then continue with seeding and nursery practices involving 20 PKK cadres. The hybrid chilies sown include the UNIB Pi, P3, P5, and P7 hybrid chilies. On November 28, the seedlings, which were 34 days old, were transplanted into polybags measuring 40 x 40 cm in the village nursery. Based on the activity evaluation, the partners demonstrated an understanding of the process of seeding and breeding UNIB hybrid chilies and successfully used jangkos as a planting medium.

Abstract

The Community-Based Drinking Water and Sanitation Provision Program (PAMSIMAS) serves as a community-driven platform for rural drinking water and sanitation development. In the Banjar Regency area, PAMSIMAS management faces challenges, including a limited number of available water reservoirs and a slow water-filling process into these reservoirs. Additionally, there is a shortage of qualified human resources for community training. To address these issues, activities were conducted to enhance community skills in maintaining PASMIMAS equipment. Collaboration took place with work units in the Banjar Regency government, involving 30 village officials in the West Martapura District. The method employed included lectures and question-and-answer sessions. The analysis utilized to evaluate the training's success involved pre-test and post-test assessments. The results indicated an increase in participants' knowledge, with a pre-test average of 40.66 and a post-test average of 70.50, yielding a p-value of > 0.00 (paired t-test). In conclusion, this training effectively enhanced PAMSIMAS knowledge among village officials.

Abstract

Several cases of violence against children are increasingly mushrooming. This phenomenon is suspected to be a failure for parents to regulate the emotions they feel, especially negative emotions that often appear in everyday life. This community service is carried out with the aim of providing understanding to parents regarding the importance of regulating the emotions they feel through reflective journals. This activity is a psychoeducational seminar and reflective journal training as a solution to regulate emotions appropriately. This community service was carried out for parents at KB/TK Alam Muhammadiyah Surya Mentari Surakarta. The result of this service activity is that parents realize that anger is a natural reaction from the body that does not need to be avoided and must be transformed into appropriate behavior. Apart from that, indirectly reflective journals also become a conversation partner for parents in dealing with various emotions felt in everyday life. This community service has an impact on participants, namely parents, in terms of increasing knowledge about emotions and how to regulate them appropriately.

Abstract

Cemagi Village faces challenges in its human resources sector, which are not yet prepared to compete in the tourism industry, and waste management, which is deemed highly risky. In response to waste management issues, the Cemagi Village Perbekel has initiated the establishment of the Sarwa Metu Wangi TPS3R to oversee waste management and has appointed cadres to manage waste banks in each Banjar neighborhood. To address these issues, a pilot project was launched for women's empowerment activities in Cemagi Village, specifically in Banjar Sangiangan. These service activities aim to empower women in Cemagi Village by encouraging women's groups to actively sort waste, generate additional income from the sale of segregated waste, increase public awareness of the importance of proper waste management for environmental cleanliness and public health, and support tourism village development through the application of the Sapta Pesona principles. The method of implementing these activities involves conducting waste management awareness campaigns and providing assistance in waste sorting at residents' homes. The results of these activities indicate that the community has begun to actively sort waste in accordance with guidance provided by the implementation team during assistance. This is evident from the initial condition of waste deposits at the onset of waste bank activities, which were predominantly mixed or improperly sorted. However, after providing assistance at residents' homes, the waste brought to the waste bank has begun to be properly sorted. Changes in people's waste sorting behavior serve as an indicator of the success of awareness campaigns and mentoring efforts, reflecting an increase in public awareness regarding the importance of proper waste sorting for environmental protection.
