Cassava is a type of plant that is easy to grow in various types of soil, and its cultivation method is relatively easy. The stems, leaves, and tubers of cassava have various benefits for human life. Limited knowledge and skills regarding the diversification of cassava-based processed products are an obstacle for which solutions must be sought. The purpose of this service activity is to empower the community, especially partners/target groups, through training on processing cassava into raw materials for processed food products. Community service activities carried out using training/mentoring and demonstrations/practices are one of the solutions that can be carried out for community empowerment. The results of community service activities show that all participants (100%) can actively participate in receiving all the knowledge and skills transferred and are interested in doing it themselves at home (100%). Processed products in the form of cassava flour will be consumed by themselves (77%) and sold (23%) with processed food products of cassava lunkhead (89%) and cassava noodles (11%), which were of high interest. This data shows that community service activities carried out by Palangka Raya University can contribute and become a solution to overcome problems faced by the community.
The research aims to study the response of plant purple eggplant F1 Yumi variety by providing various organic materials and the proper incubation duration on sandy soil. This research used Completely Randomized Factorial Design. The first factor is giving various organic materials (chicken manure, and kayambang bokashi manure + rice husk charcoal) and the second is the incubation duration (2.4 and 6 weeks before planting). The results showed that providing various organic materials and the incubation duration highly significant influence on plant height and number of leaves aged 4 and 6 weeks after planted, the number of productive branches and fresh weight of fruit crops, but did not significantly affect the parameters of plant height and number of leaves aged 2 WAP. The highest yield for plant height parameter aged 4 and 6 WAP, number of leaves aged 4 and 6 WAP, number of productive branchs, number of fruits and fresh fruit weight was obtained at bokashi manure + rice husk charcoal treatment with 4 weeks incubation duration before planting.
The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of chicken manure and urea on the growth and yield of onion leaves on inland peat soil. The design used was a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) factorial with two treatment factors. The first factor is that chicken manure fertilizer application consists of 4 levels, namely: 0, 5, 10 and 15 tons/ha, and the second factor is the provision of urea that consists of 3 levels, namely: 0, 125 and 250 kg/ha. The variables measured were plant height and fresh weight of the leaves of onion plants. The results showed that the interaction between chicken manure and urea fertilizer had no significant effect on all variables observed at all ages observed. Single factor giving 15 tons/ha of chicken manure fertilizer showed growth and better results on the average variable plant height and fresh weight of the leaves of onion plants in inland peat soil. Single factor giving of urea 250 kg/ha showed growth and better results on the average variable plant height and fresh weight of onion plants in inland peat soil.
Today, the tendency of people to return to life to return to nature with the belief that taking natural medicines is relatively safer than synthetic drugs has an impact on the high demand for natural medicines. Dayak onion (Eleutherine palmifolia Merr.) is one of the typical types of medicinal plants in Kalimantan wherein its use as a medicinal plant the tubers are consumed in the form of freshly boiled water or in the form of simplicia. Activities with training methods and demonstrations/practices are one of the solutions that can be done. The results of community service activities showed that all participants participated actively and could receive all the knowledge and skills transferred by the PKW team and were interested in doing it themselves at home where organic crop products would be consumed by themselves (40% ) and sold (60%) with processed food and beverage products (55%) and traditional forms of medicine (45%). Likewise, for the processing of compost made from traditional market waste, compost processed products will be used alone (85%) and sold (15%) with compost products made from market waste (80%) and other compost made from ingredients (20%) of interest. The data shows that the Community Service Program conducted by the University of Palangka Raya can contribute and be a solution to overcome the problems faced by partners
