Abstract

The aim of this community service is to improve the knowledge and skills of farmers in Morome Village, South Konawe Regency, regarding the introduction of high-quality forage types and silage production techniques. The method used involved socialization and training with a practical approach on silage production from local forages and agricultural waste. The results showed that farmers successfully identified more nutritious forages, such as elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) and legumes, and were able to process these materials into silage that can be stored for an extended period. However, some challenges, such as limited facilities and a lack of understanding in managing silage quality, were still faced by some farmers. Nevertheless, the overall activity had a positive impact on improving livestock feed security and farm productivity. In conclusion, silage production training can be an effective solution to overcome the feed shortage during the dry season.

Abstract

The community service program aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of farmer-livestock groups in managing livestock feed. Its main objective is to improve the capacity of farmers in forage production to ensure a consistent supply of livestock feed, particularly during the dry season. The training focused on the selection, cultivation, and maintenance of forage species such as Pennisetum purpureum (elephant grass). Post-training evaluations showed a significant improvement in participants' knowledge and skills, particularly in understanding forage planting techniques. Additionally, the program successfully increased the availability of livestock feed, reduced dependence on external feed sources, and stabilized livestock productivity. The results of this community service align with the theory of empowerment through skill-based agricultural training and sustainable farming practices, as well as findings from previous studies on the impact of forage planting on livestock production. This program concludes. This program concludes that training and technical assistance for farmers are essential in ensuring food security and improving economic independence.

Abstract

This community service aims to improve the efficiency of resource management and organizational management within the Lembah Subur Morome Farmers Group in Konda District, Konawe Selatan Regency. The main issue faced by this farmers group is the lack of efficient resource management and poorly structured organization, which affects productivity and the welfare of its members. Using a participatory approach, training was provided to the group members on organizational management, resource management, and more effective marketing techniques. The results of the service showed improvements in managerial capacity, efficiency in managing natural and human resources, and the ability to market agricultural products. The farmer’s group is now more organized, with more transparent budget management and clearer task division. Additionally, marketing skills through social media have enabled the farmers to expand their market reach and increase income. This service is expected to contribute positively to agricultural development and the improvement of farmers' welfare in Konda District.

Abstract

This initiative addressed the critical deficit in public street lighting in Soropia Village, which hindered safety, mobility, and economic activity after dusk. Moving beyond mere infrastructure provision, the project's core objective was to establish a sustainable, community-owned model for public lighting through comprehensive technical capacity building and institutional development. Employing a participatory rural appraisal (PRA) framework, the project engaged 35 local participants in a multi-phase process over June 2025. This included collaborative identification of problem areas, co-design of technical solutions using locally-sourced and recycled materials, and an intensive, hands-on workshop. The technical design specifically utilized recycled metal pipes fabricated by participants, reinforced concrete foundations (40cm x 40cm x 60cm), and a safe electrical system with LED technology, proper grounding, and overcurrent protection connected to the existing grid. The project yielded three primary outcomes: 1) The successful installation of multiple functional, community-fabricated street lights at strategic locations; 2) A measurable enhancement of technical skills among participants, enabling independent maintenance and replication; and 3) The emergence of a formalized community task force committed to the project's longevity. Pre- and post-workshop assessments showed a 75% increase in technical self-efficacy scores among participants. The Soropia model demonstrates that integrating technical education with community-led implementation and early institutionalization fosters profound and sustainable empowerment. The transformation of participants from passive beneficiaries to active managers of their infrastructure is the key success metric. For scalability, we recommend integrating a micro-enterprise component to ensure financial sustainability for ongoing maintenance and expansion, thereby creating a replicable blueprint for rural infrastructural development.

Abstract

Desa Popalia, Kecamatan Tanggetada, Kabupaten Kolaka, has experienced an increase in solid waste generation due to the growth of educational activities, migrant settlements, and local economic development following the establishment of the second campus of Universitas Sembilanbelas November (USN) Kolaka. This condition has not been adequately supported by proper waste management facilities, particularly temporary waste storage site (Tempat Penampungan Sementara/TPS), which may lead to environmental and public health problems. This Community Service Program (PKM) aimed to analyze and recommend a suitable location for a TPS based on the environmental and social characteristics of Desa Popalia. The methods included field surveys, primary and secondary data collection, and site suitability analysis using a scoring approach based on environmental, technical-operational, social, and spatial criteria. The results indicate that one alternative location achieved the highest suitability score, as it met key criteria such as safe distance from residential areas, accessibility for waste transportation vehicles, land availability, and community acceptance. This PKM activity provides a technical recommendation for the village government in planning waste management infrastructure. The results are expected to support the development of a more structured, sustainable, and environmentally friendly village waste management system.

Abstract

Limited awareness among fishermen regarding protected marine species remains a major challenge in marine conservation efforts in coastal areas. Lanto Village, Central Mawasangka District, Central Buton Regency, is a coastal community where most residents depend on fishing activities, resulting in frequent interactions with protected marine species. This community service activity aimed to enhance fishermen’s knowledge and awareness of protected marine species, including their identification, legal protection status, and ecological importance, through socialization and educational activities. The methods applied included a pre-test, oral presentations supported by visual media, interactive discussions, and a post-test to assess changes in participants’ understanding. The results indicated that prior to the activity, fishermen’s knowledge of protected marine species was generally low, particularly regarding legal regulations, protection status, and ecological reasons for conservation. Following the socialization process, a significant improvement was observed in fishermen’s ability to identify protected marine species and their awareness of the importance of marine ecosystem conservation. This activity demonstrates that participatory and context-based educational approaches are effective in increasing knowledge and fostering conservation awareness among coastal communities.
