Abstract

Home garden productivity can be enhanced by managing plant diversity, optimizing stand arrangements, and selecting species suited to local land conditions. Avocado trees, in particular, have strong potential to thrive in the karst regions of Karangasem Village, Paliyan, Gunungkidul. Some trees planted spottily by local people in their home garden have been able to bear fruit. The avocado trees have also been grown intensively in the Semanu District, adjacent to Paliyan District. These factors indicate that avocado trees are well-adapted to the local area. To promote optimal growth, stand management should incorporate appropriate silvicultural practices. The objective of this community service program was to increase the tree species diversification of home gardens in Karangasem Village by planting avocado trees by assisting the Forest Farmer Group of Lestari Mulyo, as a potential driving group to the community. In the future, local communities can hopefully establish avocados as a new commodity to help boost household incomes.

Abstract

The causes of shipping accidents, as identified by the KNKT investigation, included technical, weather, and human factors. As a result, community empowerment training was conducted in 2023 for loaders of inland waterway transport vessels Class I. This training aimed to enhance participants’ knowledge, insight, and skills regarding loading arrangements and stability testing of inland waterway vessels. The study employed a quantitative descriptive method using primary data from evaluations, including pretests and posttests administered to 30 training participants. The analysis technique utilized was the paired t-test. Results obtained through the Wilcoxon Matched Pair test indicated a significant difference between pretest and posttest scores, leading to the conclusion that participants’ knowledge improved after completing the training. The findings revealed that, out of 30 training participants, only 2 experienced a decrease in scores. Conversely, 28 participants showed positive results (positive rankings), indicating an increase in scores. The average pretest score was 73.67, which increased to an average posttest score of 92.50 following the training. These results were further supported by the significant difference shown in the paired t-test analysis. In conclusion, there was a significant improvement in participants’ knowledge after the training. It is recommended that the program be expanded to include more participants to ensure that the broader community, particularly ship operators, benefits from increased knowledge of shipping safety and proper ship loading practices.

Abstract

One of the ecological challenges in managing conservation areas is the colonization and establishment of alien and/or native plant species, especially after forest disturbances. The capacity stakeholders to determine the invasiveness risk of these plant species groups and then management strategies to monitor changes in vegetation structure and species composition is critical. The community engagement program aims to improve the capacity of conservation area stakeholders to identify plant species, including invasive species, and assess the risk of invasive species. Focus group discussion (FGD) were conducted online and offline and targeted stakeholders of the Natural Resources Conservation Agency (Balai Konservasi Sumber Daya Alam–BKSDA) of Central Java Province. Three FGD sessions were held on the topics: (1) forest monitoring and invasion ecology, (2) plant species identification and invasive species monitoring techniques, and (3) vegetation and invasiveness risk analysis. During the discussion, target groups shared ideas and lessons learned related to managing invasive species in the field. The results showed a significant increase in the capacity of the target group (p=4.546e-09), as the average pretest score was 56.25 ± 13.68 compared to the average posttest score of 75.70 ± 20.27. The target group understands the definition of an invasive (alien) species, the factors that determine the success of this species invasion, and the positive and negative contributions alien species to the newly established ecosystem. Some gaps that need to be addressed relate to methods and criteria for identifying species invasiveness in invasive species risk analysis. As a follow-up, a practical training on invasive (alien) species risk analysis was conducted at different occasion and funding sources.

Abstract

The recent application of palm empty fruit bunches as solid waste directly on soil or as organic fertilizer has enhanced palm farms. Moreover, the co-products of this palm oil mill constitute a dependable metric for assessing mill processing performance, specifically regarding quantity and weight. The quantity of palm empty fruit bunches is usually ascertained through manual counting using a hand counter during processing. The imprecision in calculating palm empty fruit bunches is a limitation of this method, as operators sometimes perform erroneous calculations, overlook quantities, and produce contradictory results for mill management. To address this issue, the sector requires enhanced execution of a monitoring and counting system methodology. The aim of this community service project is to create an empty fruit bunches count station using an IoTbased palm solid waste counting system for use in palm mills. The Ministry of Industry - Politeknik Teknologi Kimia Industri (PTKI) Medan will engage in and oversee the advancement of Industry 4.0 within the industrial sector. The initiative was executed at Tanah Gambus Estate in Batubara Regency, North Sumatra. Assistance was provided by a palm mill partner associated with PT. Socfin Indonesia. The implementation of the empty fruit bunches palm oil counting system was conducted efficiently, facilitating optimal operations, real–time online monitoring, uninterrupted functionality exceeding 24 hours daily, swift assessment of the empty fruit bunches volume, immediate identification of traditional counting inaccuracies by operators and management, and its station provides benefits to the palm industry.

Abstract

Injuries contribute to disability and morbidity in countries around the world. Among the elderly, falls are the most common type of injury, with an incidence rate of approximately 2.3–7% per 1,000 individuals. Injuries can lead to physical impairments, including reduced limb function. In the elderly population, particularly those aged 65 years and older, injuries are associated with a high risk of mortality and severe disability. Preventing injuries and falls is a critical public health concern. Families serve as essential support systems for addressing injuryrelated issues within households and the surrounding environment. This activity aimed to provide families with education on preventing and managing injuries in vulnerable populations. Health education sessions were delivered to health cadres and community members through lectures, discussions, and expert-led questionand-answer sessions. Educational materials included PowerPoint presentations and pocketbooks. At the conclusion of the sessions, a group demonstration was conducted on the management of splints in community settings. Knowledge was assessed using a questionnaire developed based on the health education materials. Fall risk screening was conducted using the First Time Injury Falls (FIF) instrument. The results revealed that among the 27 respondents, knowledge levels significantly improved after the educational sessions (p-value < 0.05). Fall risk screening outcomes indicated that 20 respondents (74.1%) were at low risk for falls, 5 respondents (18.5%) were at moderate risk, and 2 respondents (7.4%) were at high risk. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that health education is effective in enhancing family knowledge about injury prevention and management in vulnerable populations.

Abstract

Central Java ranks fourth among regions for the highest number of diabetes melitus (DM) cases, following Jakarta, Yogyakarta, and East Kalimantan. Grogol District in Sukoharjo Regency had the greatest prevalence of DM cases in 2019, accounting for 18.41% of the total. Diabetes melitus significantly impairs the overall well-being of individuals as it affects individuals across all age groups, including those who can work and those who cannot. If left unmanaged, it can lead to a range of outcomes. The Karanglo Village community is considered at high risk for diabetes melitus (DM) due to a history of health ailments and elevated blood glucose levels. Furthermore, this region is still lacking any health education interventions. This activity aimed to do earlier screening and monitoring of blood sugar levels, as well as providing health education, using the SEE approach (Screening, Health Education, and Exercise) to monitor diabetes melitus. The program was implemented in the period from November 2023 to January 2024, which includes a total of 27 participants, all of whom are female. The implementation of the programs involves the following methods: conducting blood sugar level screenings, engaging in diabetes exercises twice a week, providing health education in six meetings that cover topics such as the epidemiology and etiology, risk factors and prevention, symptoms and diagnosis, complications and management of DM, as well as blood glucose monitoring. Apart from using tools in the form of presentation slides, health education also utilized educational posters. At the end of the program, there was an increase in knowledge by 21.5% (p=0.024) based on pretest and posttest scores, improvements in blood sugar levels, total cholesterol levels, and body mass index. To follow up on the program, a group of independent blood sugar observers has been formed who is responsible for further monitoring blood sugar in program participants.

Abstract

Straw, a byproduct of rice harvesting, is a waste material from farming activities that can be repurposed as animal feed and organic fertilizer. Rice straw, when supplemented with probiotics, can enhance feed nutrition, and its high potassium content contributes to the fertility of agricultural soil. The purpose of this community service activity was to increase the knowledge of the Sri Warga farmer group about the benefits of rice straw and the application of organic waste shredding machine technology. The physical shredding of rice straw improves its quality as animal feed and accelerates the composting process for organic fertilizer. The results of the community service activity demonstrated the farmer group members’ enthusiasm for adopting organic waste shredding machine technology and utilizing rice straw. There was a notable increase in their understanding of the dual benefits of rice straw—as a nutritious animal feed and as a resource for enhancing soil quality through organic fertilizers. This activity significantly improved the knowledge and awareness of Sri Warga farmer group members about the potential uses of rice straw. A post-activity questionnaire revealed that 95% of the farmer group members understood the benefits and nutritional content of rice straw for use as organic fertilizer or animal feed, compared to only 70% before the activity. This highlights the success of the community service initiative in empowering the Sri Warga farmer group wi

Abstract

The village of Jagaraga, located in the Sawan district of Buleleng Regency, Bali Province, had significant potential in both culture and agriculture, particularly in rice farming. More than half of the village’s land area was rice fields, and over two-thirds of the villagers were rice farmers. However, ensuring healthy soils and crops through effective fertilizer solutions remained a major challenge. The aim of the community development initiative was to empower the village farmers to become innovative through collaborative learning and by inventing and commercializing a slow-release nano fertilizer. A participatory action and learning approach was used to engage the rice farming community. The Subak Babakan farmer organization and the local rice milling enterprise, PB Suwela Amertha, were involved in the empowerment activities, which included information sessions, training, technology application, guidance, evaluation, and sustainability planning. As a result, four formulas of slow-release organic nano fertilizers in pellet form were successfully developed. Additionally, a four-helix partnership involving academicians, the farmer community, enterprises, and the government was established to build a business platform for commercializing the innovation. Through this collaboration, academicians and community farmers successfully learned to address the primary challenges in rice agriculture innovatively while promoting sustainable practices to maintain the health of the land and the well-being of the villagers.
