Abstract

The community service program focused on the Sumber Bibit Farmers Group, located in Mokoau Village, Kambu District, as the implementation site. The program aimed to enhance farmers’ knowledge and skills in processing organic waste into compost fertilizer that benefits soil fertility. The main challenge faced by the farmers’ group was the accumulation of waste derived from living organisms, both from agricultural activities and household waste, which had not been optimally utilized. The activity was carried out through training, demonstrations, and hands-on guidance in processing organic waste using simple technology with the help of local microorganisms (MOL) as bioactivators. Participants were involved in every stage of the process—from material collection and fermentation to packaging the finished compost product. The evaluation results indicated an increase in participants’ understanding of the importance of organic waste management and their ability to produce and utilize compost fertilizer independently. Through this training, the farmers’ group is expected to apply the technology sustainably to support organic and environmentally friendly agriculture in the Mokoau area.

Abstract

Neurological disorders are among the growing public health problems associated with aging and lifestyle changes. Lack of knowledge and awareness of early neurological symptoms often hinders efforts in early detection and prevention. This community service activity aimed to enhance public knowledge and awareness of neurological disorders through health examinations and educational interventions. The program was conducted in Renon Village, involving 50 participants from the general public and elderly groups. The methods included pre-test, basic neurological health screening, interactive health education, and post-test evaluation. The results showed a 32% increase in participants’ average knowledge scores after the intervention, with 22.4% of participants identified as having potential neurological risk factors such as hypertension, hyperglycemia, and decreased reflexes. The improvement in knowledge and community participation demonstrated the effectiveness of the participatory approach applied. These findings support the importance of integrating medical screening and community-based education as preventive strategies to maintain neurological health.

Abstract

This community service program aims to enhance food security and family nutrition among small-scale livestock farmers through the implementation of an integrated livestock farming system in Mokoau Village, Kambu District, Kendari City. Most residents in this area rely on small-scale livestock farming with traditional management practices, resulting in suboptimal livestock productivity and inadequate family nutrition. The program provided training, technical assistance, and implementation of an integrated system combining livestock and crop farming to optimize local resource utilization. The method applied a participatory approach, consisting of several stages: initial survey, training, technical mentoring, and evaluation. Data were collected through observation, questionnaires, and interviews with farmers. The results showed significant improvement in livestock productivity, with an average increase in livestock body weight by 12–15% and egg production by 20%. Family protein consumption also increased by approximately 30% per week, indicating a tangible improvement in family nutrition quality. Furthermore, farmers’ knowledge and skills in feed management, livestock health, and waste utilization improved considerably. Livestock waste was processed into organic fertilizer for food crops, supporting the sustainability of the integrated livestock system. Overall, the program proved effective in enhancing productivity, food security, and the welfare of smallholder livestock farmers in Mokoau Village, and it serves as a sustainable community empowerment model for rural development.

Abstract

An unhealthy lifestyle, such as poor diet and lack of physical activity, increases the risk of degenerative diseases due to oxidative stress caused by free radicals. Antioxidants play a crucial role in neutralizing free radicals and protecting cells from damage. Gotu kola and mint leaves are known to contain high levels of antioxidants; however, their use as an herbal beverage remains underutilized. This study aims to enhance public understanding of the benefits of combining gotu kola and mint leaf extracts and to promote their consumption as a natural herbal drink. The methods used include a pretest, direct material presentation with leaflets, and a posttest. The pretest results indicated low to moderate initial knowledge among participants. After the session, posttest results showed a significant improvement in understanding. This education effectively increased public awareness of natural ingredients for a healthy lifestyle. Similar initiatives should be conducted continuously.

Abstract

Low environmental awareness in schools, particularly in the utilization of vacant land, organic waste management, and the need for greening, is the background for this community service program. The objective of the activity is to increase the awareness and skills of school members in environmental conservation. This community service program was implemented as part of the Tri Dharma Perguruan Tinggi (Three Pillars of Higher Education) at SMP and SMAS Karya Gedeg, Ngares Village, Mojokerto Regency. The methods used included field reviews, socialization, practical demonstrations of tree planting and organic fertilizer production (solid and liquid compost), student mentoring, as well as monitoring and evaluation. As an integral part of the program, a School Waste Bank was also established to manage inorganic waste and introduce the circular economy to students. The results of the activities showed high enthusiasm from the participants. Some of the tangible achievements included the planting of trees in the school area, the successful demonstration of organic fertilizer production, and the operation of a waste bank managed by the Student Council. The impacts included increased environmental awareness, skills in processing organic waste, the creation of green spaces, and a culture of waste sorting among students. In conclusion, this program has successfully fostered awareness among the younger generation and provided practical skills in preserving the ecosystem. For sustainability, it is recommended that schools continue the program consistently, students apply their knowledge at home, and local governments provide support. This activity has the potential to become a model for school-based environmental management that can be replicated in other regions.

Abstract

Tobimeita Village in Kendari City, Southeast Sulawesi, has abundant sugar palm (Arenga pinnata) resources that remain underutilized. One of the main challenges in processing sugar palm fruit into kolang kaling is the manual peeling method, which is time-consuming and poses a high risk of injury. This community service program aimed to empower local residents through the introduction of a simple, context-based technology called Kupclang—a mechanical peeler designed to improve safety and efficiency. The activities included socialization, hands-on training, product demonstration, and business mentoring. Results showed that Kupclang reduced peeling time from 90 seconds to just 6 seconds per fruit, achieving a work efficiency increase of 93.33%. The innovation also improved product quality and encouraged active participation, especially among women. This initiative contributed to enhancing local value-added production and opened new opportunities for small-scale entrepreneurship. The program recommends replicating Kupclang in other areas with similar agro-resource potential.
