Limbah pertanian cenderung dipandang sebagai bahan buangan oleh petani, sehingga sering terbuang percuma dan dibakar. Limbah pertanian yang terbuang pada dasarnya merupakan bahan organik yang mengandung unsur hara yang dibutuhkan tanaman. Dampaknya petani membutuhkan jumlah pupuk yang lebih banyak untuk meningkatkan produksi, disisi lain petani membuang bahan baku pupuk yang bermanfaat bagi kesuburan dan kesehatan tanah. Keterbatasan pengetahuan petani mengenai kandungan hara makro dan mikro limbah pertanian menyebabkan limbah dibuang dan dibakar. Umumnya petani juga tidak mengetahui metode pengomposan limbah pertanian, khususnya limbah jerami padi. Kondisi ini juga terjadi di kawasan Subak Telun Ayah, Tegalalang, Gianyar. Guna mengatasi permasalahan petani, maka dilakukan penyuluhan atau sosialisasi terkait kandungan limbah dan upaya pengolahan melalui pengomposan. Petani diberikan pengetahuan terkait pengomposan limbah pertanian dengan cepat, mudah dan menghasilkan kompos berkualitas dengan memanfaatkan dekomposer alami (seperti kotoran hewan dan tanah subur). Petani juga diberikan pengetahuan terkait manfaat dari kompos dari limbah pertanian bagi kesuburan tanah. Harapannya petani memiliki pengetahuan terkait pengelolaan limbah pertanian dan mampu memanfaatkannya, sehingga kedepannya mampun mewujudkan pertanian yang ramah lingkungan. Kata kunci: sosialisasi, limbah pertanian, pengelolaan limbah, kesuburan tanah, Subak ABSTRACT Agricultural waste tends to be seen as a waste material by farmers, so it is often wasted and burned. Agricultural waste that is wasted is basically organic material that contains nutrients needed by plants. As a result, farmers need more fertilizer to increase production, on the other hand, farmers throw away fertilizer raw materials that are beneficial for soil fertility and health. The limited knowledge of farmers regarding the macro and micro nutrient content of agricultural waste causes the waste to be disposed of and burned. Generally, farmers also do not know the method of composting agricultural waste, especially rice straw waste. This condition also occurs in the Subak Telun Ayah area, Tegalalang, Gianyar. In order to overcome farmers' problems, counseling or socialization related to waste content and processing efforts through composting is carried out. Farmers are given knowledge related to composting agricultural waste quickly, easily and to produce quality compost by utilizing natural decomposers (such as animal manure and fertile soil). Farmers are also given knowledge regarding the benefits of compost from agricultural waste for soil fertility. The hope is that farmers have knowledge related to agricultural waste management and are able to use it, so that in the future they are able to realize environmentally friendly agriculture Keywords: socialization, agricultural waste, waste management, soil fertility, Subak

“…Burning crop residues on farms contributes substantially to CO 2 emissions and air pollution in many countries of Asia (Streets et al 2003;Lohan et al 2018;Wu et al 2020;Bajracharya, Mishra, and Maharjan 2021;. In 2017-2018, nearly 116 million tons of crop residue were burned in India, which emitted 176.1 teragrams (Tg) of CO 2 , 313.9 gigagrams (Gg) of CH 4 , and 8.14 Gg of N 2 O (Venkatramanan et al 2021).…”

Asia and the Pacific accounts for over 50% of the world’s total greenhouse gas emissions, driven by rapid economic growth and energy consumption in developing countries. Far-reaching efforts are urgently needed to reduce the region’s emissions and realize a 1.5°C temperature drop required to fight climate change and associated threats to sustainable development, particularly in highly polluted cities. Many governments have pledged to meet net-zero carbon emissions by around mid-century, but action to transform energy markets alone will not be enough. Measures to promote the decarbonization of the transport, buildings, agriculture, and other sectors must also be taken forward to successfully achieve emissions reduction targets. Climate Change Mitigation: Policies and Lessons for Asia highlights evidence-based approaches for advancing decarbonization across sectors. It offers timely insights for policy makers and scholars seeking to better understand the region’s climate change mitigation challenges, policy approaches for fostering emissions breakthroughs, and the sustainable development implications.

“…combustion has led to a decline in air quality and various health problems (Raza et al, 2022). There are still people who are unaware of the negative effects of open burning on the environment and health effects (Bajracharya et al, 2021). The practice of burning agricultural crop residues is a challenge in agricultural production systems, due to increased air pollution (Raza et al, 2022).…”

The community service carried out aims to increase the knowledge and understanding of farmers in the processing of agricultural waste, especially composting rice straw. Community service is also held to increase farmers' knowledge regarding the role of rice straw compost in improving soil fertility. The method used is socialization or counseling as a form of knowledge transfer to farmers. The socialization involved 20 members of the Subak Telun Ayah group, Gianyar Bali. The results show that due to limited knowledge of the benefits of rice straw for soil fertility, farmers tend to burn the agricultural waste produced. Farmers also do not believe in the benefits of compost so they prefer the use of inorganic fertilizers.
