Work fatigue is a phenomenon that is experienced by many workers that may possibly reduce work productivity among workers. In most cases, this type of fatigue is not just being physically tired, but also it is mentally exhausted. Several instruments which are able to measure this problem has been well developed, however, to the best authors’ knowledge ongoing work fatigue can reduce worker productivity. There are already many instruments to measure fatigue, but each instrument may not be used to measure work fatigue, especially workers in the informal sector, so it is necessary to develop a valid and reliable instrument to measure work fatigue. This research was developed by analyzing every statement in (UWFI). The number of samples was 38 female workers in the informal sector. The statistical test used for validity analysis is product-moment correlation and reliability using single reliability. The results showed that of the 23 items there were 4 items that were invalid but because they were represented by other items, the items were not used, so the UWFI instrument numbered 19 items. While the reliability of the instrument is 0.877, the UWFI instrument is declared valid and reliable.

Local food is created and developed in accordance with the potential, resources, and local culture of the area. As a result, the type, quantity, and quality of local food products will vary depending on the regional conditions. Tempursari Village has a fairly high diversity of food where 8 types of taro grow there. The taro cultivation activity was attended by 20 members of the Mekar Sari Farmers Association. The implementation stages include village potential surveys, discussions with farmer groups, cultivation training, plant maintenance, monitoring and evaluation. The results of these activities are able to increase land productivity so as to provide an alternative in improving the economy of farmer groups as a way of diversifying food by optimally utilizing land resources which provides a positive value for farmer income.

Sebagai negara berpenduduk mayoritas Muslim, status halal atas berbagai produk dan jasa turut menjadi kebutuhan bagi masyarakat Indonesia, seiring dengan semakin meningkatnya kesadaran dan kepedulian masyarakat terhadap produk ramah muslim. Dalam kasus ayam, persoalan halal atau haram sudah muncul sejak subsistem agribisnis hulu, namun penelitian ini berfokus pada subsistem pemroses pasok ayam melalui pemetaan pemangku pelaku usaha dan pemangku kepentingan terkait di bidang pemrosesan ayam pada Tempat Pemotongan Ayam (TPA) dan Rumah Pemotongan Ayam (RPA) yang merupakan titik kritis dalam sertifikasi halal, mengidentifikasi kesiapan sertifikasi halal pada bidang pemrosesan ayam serta mengkaji tantangan, hambatan, dan berbagai faktor yang berhubungan dengan sertifikasi halal, serta memberikan saran dan rekomendasi pemecahan masalah dan implikasi untuk kesiapan sertifikasi halal bagi pelaku usaha dan pemangku kepentingan terkait yang diselenggarakan melalui serangkaian proses wawancara dan FGD. Hasil penelitian pada TPA dan RPA di empat lokasi yaitu Jawa Barat, Banten, Jawa Tengah, dan Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta menunjukkan bahwa TPA dan RPA siap dan telah mengikuti sertifikasi halal, baik bagi juru sembelihnya maupun pada produk yang mereka hasilkan.

Upaya pemanfaatan pekarangan rumah melalui sistem aquaponik untuk membantu memenuhi kebutuhan pangan keluarga sudah diupayakan oleh sebagian kecil ibu rumah tangga di Desa Kalinegoro, Kecamatan Mertoyudan, Kabupaten Magelang. Upaya tersebut dilakukan dalam rangka implementasi HATINYA PKK untuk mewujudkan halaman, asri, teratur, indah dan nyaman. Guna mengoptimalkan upaya yang telah dirintis tersebut terutama masa pandemi Covid-19 ini, maka tim PHP2D Fakultas Teknik, Universitas Muhammadiyah Magelang melakukan pendampingan kepada para ibu rumah tangga di desa tersebut untuk mengoptimalkan upaya yang telah dirintis. Metode pelaksanaan menggunakan pendekatan partisipatif di mana mitra terlibat aktif dalam seluruh kegiatan yang direncanakan. Kegiatan dilaksanakan secara bertahap yaitu tahap sosialisasi, tahap pelaksanaan yang berupa pelatihan-pelatihan dan pendampingan. Hasil pendampingan antara lain adalah di 3 RW dari 18 RW yang ada di Desa Kalinegoro, setiap ibu rumah tangga sudah membuat aquaponik di rumahnya masing-masing, pembuatan website Bank Sayur, pembuatan buku "Panduan Pembuatan Aquaponic dari Bahan Bekas", dan terbentuknya KWT "Sekar Wangi" di Kalinegoro

The COVID-19 pandemic caused a large-scale disruption to countries worldwide particularly in road traffic changes and people mobility. To respond to this, a titanic amount of published studies had investigated those concerns. However, a study describing mitigation efforts relating to this pandemic in the transportation sector is scarce. On the other hand, the lack of coordination between transportation authorities, public transport operators, and passengers triggers complex issues including the accumulation of passengers at bus stations that potentially increase virus transmission. For this reason, this article intends to investigate and establish strategies for safe passenger transport. The finding of the article presented four basic strategies as follows: First, a coordinated response among stakeholders and government is needed to develop comprehensive policies. Second, coordinated demand management is required to maintain a balance between government policies and citizen demands. Third, provide health education on Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to public transport crews. Fourth, protecting the passengers and maintaining trust in public transport services. Additionally, it is recommended to provide adequate infrastructure, perform regular check-ups (i.e. assessing body temperature before entering public transportation), provide up-to-date COVID-19 health alert, and implement health protocol. Also, when this pandemic is over, the use of fuel-based transportation needs to be reduced, especially for short trips. To optimize this strategy, the role of government and health authorities on the policy side is crucial. Also, a good response from public transport operators and passengers is the key to defeat the COVID-19 pandemic in the transportation area.
