Abstract

Processed fish in the form of soft bone milkfish is a superior product of the city of Semarang that needs attention because it involves many business actors and has an influence on regional economic growth. However, there are still many obstacles related to production and marketing aspects. This paper is limited to handling production aspects in two fish processing SMEs in Semarang City, namely CV New Citra and UD Putri Laut. The problem faced by the two SME partners is that the production equipment for pressure cooking milkfish has a small capacity so that productivity is less than optimal. Another problem is that the shelf life of existing products is not long enough. To overcome this problem, the implementation team carries out community service using several methods, including socialization, training and mentoring. After the two tools were successfully created, the implementation team provided training and assistance on how to operate the two tools until the partners mastered and were skilled. Currently these two tools have been used in the pressure cooker milkfish production process, and have been proven to be able to increase production capacity and quality. Based on field observations, pressure cookers are able to increase production capacity by up to 300 percent, saving fuel costs by 66.66 percent. The retort tool succeeded in increasing product shelf life by up to 1 year, and saved retort costs of IDR 600,000, per retort process.

SMK Al- Ma'shum Mardiyah has a curriculum about agrotechnology that has an entrepreneurial spirit. The results of discussions with partners at the pesantren, there are problems regarding the production aspect, where the types of products produced by SMK students are still limited. In this PkM which was carried out on July 22 and August 26-30, partners were taught to produce eco-enzymes. The eco-enzyme is made from vegetable waste collected by vocational students around the school. The benefits of this activity are felt by the community because it can increase the type of production.

Abstract

To support the achievement of the quality of the nation's education through higher education, it should be in harmony and synergy with the activities of the Tri Dharma Lecturer. One of the program is international community service. This community service will be applied to the Indonesian worker community under the Indonesian Embassy, Malaysia. The demand for holistic education is increasingly urgent. The young generation, including Generation Alpha, must be equipped with knowledge, skills and strong values to face the increasingly complex challenges of the future. Anti-corruption education is an important aspect of the education process that is often overlooked or lacking in the formal curriculum. The Indonesian workers' community under the Indonesian Embassy in Malaysia is a gathering place for Indonesian families living abroad, with a focus on education and youth development. Parents have a crucial role in shaping their children's education. However, they often need the right guidance and resources to support their children's development in these aspects. Given these conditions, there is a need to maximize the role of parents in anti-corruption education for the Alpha Generation within the Indonesian working community under the Indonesian Embassy in Malaysia. By involving parents in the education process, we can create an environment that supports the full development of children's potential and help them become citizens of the country that have good responsibility and integrity.

Before the material was given, the students filled out the pretest and after the presentation of the material by the resource person, the students completed the posttest. Pretest and posttest are carried out in order to determine the level of understanding of students related to the material that has been given. From the test results, it can be concluded that there is an increase in the understanding of female students by 38.98% after the material is given. This shows that the increase in understanding of female students related to stunting and reproductive health has increased. After this program is implemented, a Follow-up Plan (RTL) will be carried out between pengabdi and the Regional Leadership of Nasyiatul Aisyiyah Pontianak City in an effort to recruit early cadres in Nasyiah.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the Performance of the Balikpapan City Trade Office in supervising the distribution of subsidized fertilizers, which is an important element in supporting the agricultural sector and food security. Subsidized fertilizers play a role in providing access to farmers to obtain fertilizers at affordable prices, but challenges such as uncertainty of supply and uneven distribution are still problems. The research method used is descriptive qualitative with data collection through documentation and interviews. The results of the study indicate that the trade office has implemented integrated and comprehensive supervision standards, including planning, implementation, and monitoring of fertilizer distribution. Although there has been progress in the availability of fertilizers, the evaluation indicates the need for improvements in inter-agency cooperation and distribution systems to increase the effectiveness of supervision. With reports on the circulation of fake fertilizers, the Trade Office conducts direct supervision at kiosks and farmer groups and coordinates with related agencies to ensure effective distribution

Abstract

This Community Partnership Program (PKM) was implemented to support the empowerment of a group of lobster farmers in Sawarna Village, who face various challenges in managing their farming business. The problems faced by lobster farmer groups in the village are lack of access to stable energy and limited management knowledge, which has an impact on the sustainability of the lobster farming business. The purpose of this service is to improve the knowledge and skills of lobster farmers in business management and adopt renewable energy technology as a solution to limited energy access. The method used in this activity is the Participatory Rural Appraisal approach, which involves farmers actively through socialisation, training, technology application, mentoring, and continuous program evaluation.

In addition, there was a significant improvement in the quality of management after the training, with participants showing improved financial, marketing, and operational management. The conclusion of this activity is that the application of renewable energy technology and improved management capacity through training and mentoring can successfully support the sustainability of the lobster farming business in Sawarna Village, thus helping farmers to face the environmental and economic challenges faced in the long term.

Abstract

Tilapia cultivation in Teratak Village, Central Lombok, faces problems in feed efficiency and limited market access. Lack of automation technology causes feed waste, while limited marketing knowledge limits farmers' competitiveness. This community service activity aims to overcome these problems through the application of Internet of Things (IoT) technology in the form of automatic feeders (smart feeders) and entrepreneurship training focused on digital marketing. The methods applied include the manufacture and installation of smart fish feeders that are controlled via an application to regulate the amount and frequency of feed. In addition, entrepreneurship training focuses on digital marketing strategies through social media and e-commerce platforms to expand market reach. The results of the activity show that smart feeders increase feed efficiency by up to 20%, reduce waste, and support more optimal fish growth. Digital marketing training helps farmers improve their online promotion skills, expand market networks, and significantly increase sales. In conclusion, the application of IoT technology and digital marketing-based entrepreneurship training has proven effective in increasing the efficiency of cultivation and market competitiveness of tilapia farmers in Teratak Village
