Abstract

Rice straw management remains a major challenge in Wara Village, Jayawijaya Regency, where farmers commonly burn straw after harvest and lack the technical capacity to process agricultural waste. This community service program aimed to strengthen farmers’ and women’s family welfare development (FWD) technical and managerial skills by introducing biodecomposer technology based on locally available resources. The program involved socialization, technical training on compost production, simple farm bookkeeping instruction, field practice using molasses and EM4, and intensive mentoring. The results indicated substantial improvements in participants' knowledge and skills, including the ability to process 20–30 kg of rice straw per fermentation cycle and the establishment of a pilot farmer group capable of independently applying the technology. The family welfare development also gained competencies as household-level environmental stewards. The intervention contributed to reducing straw burning, improving soil quality through organic matter reintegration, and strengthening local socio-economic institutions. Overall, this program supports the development of autonomous, environmentally friendly, and sustainable agricultural practices in Wara Village.

Abstract

Kalanganyar Village is a village located at the eastern tip of Sidoarjo Regency. Geographically, Kalanganyar Village borders directly on the sea, so almost 2/3 of the area of ​​Kalanganyar Village is aquaculture area. Most of the residents' livelihoods are subsistence farming and fish trading. The problems faced by village residents are related to food security and marketing management. Therefore, there is a need for training on fish preservatives made from natural ingredients, namely chitosan, and digital-based marketing for fish traders. The method for implementing this activity is the Participatory Rural Appraisal method; a group of fish traders are involved in planning and carrying out this community service activity. This activity improved the quality of fish products by using chitosan-based preservatives, increasing product hygiene, and increasing skills in conducting digital marketing using the help of artificial intelligence. From this activity, a plucking thorn group and a mundak bati group were also produced, which had a governance organizational structure so that the operational management of the group was more structured and neat, both of which were approved by a decree from the Head of Kalanganyar Village.

Abstract

The demand for animal protein is increasing in line with public awareness of the importance of balanced nutrition, population growth, and increased purchasing power. Satay and shredded meat are popular foods that are sources of animal protein. The price of meat continues to rise, prompting people to seek alternative products that are less expensive to produce yet still nutritious. Processing banana hearts into banana heart satay can be an alternative solution. The "Mekar Bersama" Women Farmers Group is one of the community groups in Maros Regency that partners with us to provide education, training, and assistance in processing local agricultural products into creative, affordable, and nutritious food products. The program solution implemented is the Community Service Program (PkM), which includes education on the benefits and nutritional value of consuming banana hearts, as well as demonstrations of techniques for processing banana hearts into plant-based satay. The results of the activities showed an average increase of 66.67% in the knowledge and skills of the partners. The partners enhanced their understanding of the benefits and nutritional content of banana hearts, gained knowledge about the environment, and developed skills in processing banana hearts into vegetable satay.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the implementation and outcomes of the community service program “Smart Investment, Not Fake” designed to improve investment literacy in Cipagalo Village, Bojongsoang Subdistrict, Bandung Regency, Indonesia. Many residents are exposed to attractive but unclear investment offers and have limited ability to distinguish legal products from fraudulent schemes, underscoring the need for education on safe investing. The research used a descriptive, pre-experimental one-group pre-test–post-test design. The program was conducted face-to-face on 1 February 2025 and involved 30 villagers selected through purposive sampling. The intervention consisted of a structured socialization session including lectures, interactive discussions, and the administration of pre-test and post-test questionnaires on knowledge of smart and fake investments. Data were analyzed descriptively by comparing scores and response patterns before and after the session. The pre-test results showed that 90.90% of participants did not yet understand smart and fake investments. After the session, 93.33% rated the material as very good, 100% reported understanding the concepts and the importance of safe, OJK-supervised investment, and 36.36% stated that they intended to apply the new knowledge in practice. Participants' high attendance, active engagement, and requests for similar activities with other topics indicated strong community interest and perceived relevance. The study concludes that a short, structured socialization program, implemented through collaboration between university lecturers and local stakeholders, can effectively increase village-level financial literacy and help reduce vulnerability to investment fraud. Future activities should refine instruments to suit varying literacy levels.

Abstract

The agricultural sector's sustainability is seriously threatened by climate change, especially in vulnerable places like Perigi Village, which is primarily made up of peatlands. Due to a lack of knowledge about climate change adaptation and mitigation, farmers face decreasing productivity, seasonal uncertainty, and the risk of land fires. Through training, outreach, technical support, and the use of basic technologies based on climate-smart agriculture, the Climate-Smart Agriculture Farmers Education and Action Movement programme seeks to increase farmer capacity. Extension, hands-on training, agrosilvofishery systems, educational media, and the formation of Climate-Smart Agriculture Farmers Groups are some of the techniques employed. The program's results demonstrate a significant increase in farmer knowledge, the ability to apply adaptive techniques, and the creation of regional organisations that support collective efforts to reduce climate risks. This activity has an educational, social, ecological, and economic impact on the community and can be replicated as a model for village empowerment. This curriculum emphasises the importance of collaboration between academics, village administrations, and farmers in order to create sustainable agriculture and community resilience to climate change.

Abstract

This community service program aims to strengthen coastal micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) and ecotourism development at Puger Beach, Jember Regency, Indonesia. Puger is a traditional fishing hub with growing ecotourism potential, yet it faces constraints in destination management, product innovation, digital marketing, and stakeholder coordination. Using a participatory approach, the program involved 40 purposively selected MSMEs (fish cuisine, tourist boats, beach stalls, and handicrafts) through stages of needs assessment, training, mentoring, and evaluation. Training modules covered coastal destination management, service quality, branding, and digital promotion, followed by intensive on-site mentoring and collaborative development of promotional media. Pre- and post-intervention data were collected using questionnaires, observation, and interviews. The results show improved MSME capacities in arranging business spaces, applying basic hospitality standards, and utilising social media for promotion. Tourism boat providers and food vendors reported higher visitor numbers and short-term income growth, while handicraft producers began to reposition their products for tourism markets. The program also stimulated cleaner environmental practices and stronger collaboration between MSMEs, local leaders, and village government. These findings indicate that community-based destination management training can be an effective strategy for enhancing local economic resilience while supporting sustainable coastal ecotourism.

Abstract

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a strategic role in Indonesia’s economic development; however, many food-based MSMEs face competitiveness challenges due to limited product differentiation, weak brand identity, and inadequate marketing strategies. This community service program aimed to enhance the competitiveness of a peanut chip MSME through integrated product innovation, logo rebranding, marketable packaging design, and digital marketing optimization under the brand “PICA” (Rich-Flavored Peanut Chips). The program was implemented through several stages, including field observation and problem analysis, product formulation and processing trials, visual identity redesign, packaging development, digital promotional media creation, and monitoring and evaluation. Product innovation focused on transforming conventional fried peanuts into thin, crispy peanut chips with multiple flavor variants to increase sensory appeal and market differentiation. Rebranding activities involved redesigning the logo, selecting appropriate color schemes and typography, and creating a consistent brand identity aligned with modern consumer preferences. Packaging was upgraded from simple transparent plastic to premium standing pouches with informative and visually attractive labels to improve product perception and shelf competitiveness. In addition, digital marketing was strengthened through the use of Instagram and WhatsApp Business to expand market reach and enhance consumer engagement. The results demonstrated improvements in product quality, visual attractiveness, brand recognition, and promotional effectiveness. Overall, the integration of product innovation, rebranding, marketable packaging, and digital marketing proved effective in increasing the competitiveness and growth potential of peanut chip MSMEs. This program highlights the importance of comprehensive innovation strategies in supporting sustainable MSME development in the increasingly competitive food industry.
