Gumantar Village, Kayangan District in North Lombok Regency, has a reasonably large area of ​​dry sandy land. This dryland has the potential to be developed as a cayenne pepper-producing area in the off-season (rainy season) because the possibility of waterlogging is very low. However, very few farmers grow cayenne pepper outside of the season in Gumantar Village, and the failure rate due to pests and diseases is very high. This extension aimed to motivate farmers to grow cayenne pepper out of season by providing knowledge on cultivation procedures and techniques for managing plant pests and diseases. The method used was by meeting, discussion, and plot demonstration. Evaluation activities were carried out using two methods, namely ex-ante and summative. Overall, it can be said that the extension activities had a positive impact on the participants, as indicated by the high motivation of farmers to grow cayenne pepper out of season. Participants' satisfaction with the presented materials, along with the visualization results of the demonstration plot, were the main keys to the success of the extension.

The use of high doses of chemical fertilizers in the production of chili (Capsicum annuum L.) has an adverse impact on the environment, especially in dryland. This study aimed to examine the role of cow manure (PKS), goat manure (PKK), chicken manure (PKA), or a combination of two manures in reducing 25% of the requirement for chemical fertilizer on chili plants. One experiment was carried out in the dryland of Gumantar Village, North Lombok Regency, from May to October 2021. Phonska NPK (15-15-15) chemical fertilizer (PK) at a 1,200 kg/ha dose was used as a control. The treatments tested were 75% PK+PKS, 75% PK+PKK, 75% PK+PKA, 75% PK+PKS+PKK, 75% PK+PKS+PKA and 75% PK+PKK+PKA. The dose of manure used in each treatment was 20 tons/ha. All treatments were repeated three times and arranged in a randomized block design. The results showed that the treatment of manure, especially goat manure and chicken manure, increased the available phosphate (P) in the soil. The growth and yield of chili plants were not significantly different in all treatments, which means that manure could replace the role of 25% of the chemical fertilizer used. These results indicate that manure in the long term can reduce the need for chemical fertilizers to produce chili in dryland.  Key words: chili; dryland; manure; chemical fertilizer; nutrition

In the context of realizing, maintaining and improving the highest public health status, community service activities was carried out in the form of extension activities. The target object of community service activities in the form of counseling on Moringa oleifera Lam seedling nursery techniques in the context of providing healthy food sources in Gumantar Village, North Lombok Gumantar Village, Kayangan District, North Lombok Regency, especially members of the Telaga Valley Farmers Group, and the Hamlet Amor-Amor apparatus. The activity that carried out was one of the services to the community, namely the delivery of information through teaching and discussions as well as demonstrations of Moringa plant nursery techniques. To see whether farmers are responsive to the material that was presented, on this occasion it was observed from the feedback or response to questions asked by farmers during the discussion after the material was delivered and also the level of enthusiasm of the participants in practicing the method of Moringa plant nursery. The results shows that there was an increase in the understanding and knowledge of the members of the Valley of Telaga farmer groups regarding the benefits of the Moringa plant as a source of healthy food and a versatile plant. Increased knowledge on plant nursery techniques to produce good quality moringa seedlings, and resulted in vegetative and generative brochures for moringa plant nurseries.

Planting diversification with horticultural crops in the dry land area of North Lombok Regency is an effort to increase the planting index (IP) which is supported by appropriate cultivation technology and sufficient water availability to support plant growth. It was hoped that the increase in the cropping index in dry land areas will trigger an increase in community welfare, particularly an increase in farmers' income. Horticultural development is intended to provide added value to increasing farmers' income. Gumantar Village, Kayangan District, North Lombok Regency is one of the areas that has dry land which is quite potential for horticultural development. The problems faced by farmers in these areas include the low level of knowledge and skills of farmers, especially in the management of horticultural commodities. So far, farming activities were still traditional and the level of farmer participation was still relatively low. To overcome these problems, it was necessary to transfer innovation technology through the development of environmentally friendly horticultural crops with the application of Good Agricultural Practices and production management in accordance with natural resource conditions. Counseling and training as well as demonstration plots using the Participatory Action Research method related to horticultural cultivation technology have been carried out in Amor-Amor hamlet, Gumantar village in July-December 2019. This community service activity is considered quite successful as seen from the enthusiasm and persistence of the participants in attended counseling, training, and demonstration plots (cultivation of tomatoes and golden melons). The results of the demonstration plot showed a significant increase both in the aspect of crop productivity and increased income per unit area of arable land. Continuous assistance from all parties, especially the local government was highly expected for the sustainability of horticultural commodity development efforts in order to increase the income of dry land farmers

Lettuce and Moringa are recently popular vegetable crops because their demand improves significantly, and their development lead to dry land because its potencial in Indonesia is still high.  The use of dry land should be followed by applying inter cropping technique in order to make plant micro climate becomes more favourable. In addition, low soil fertility and intensive ussage of inorganic fertilizers makes the application of organic fertilizers imperative. The objective of the research is to investigate the type of organic fertilizer giving high yield of lettuce and moringa cultivated using inter cropping technique in dry land. The results showed that the organic fertilizers applied improved the plant growth and yield, and also improved the land equivalent ratio (LER).  The highest LER was showed by apllication of Organox, followed by  Bio Extrim and Biota Plus, and the lowest one showed by without organic fertilizer application.
