Abstract

Abstract This community service activity aimed to provide training on organic fertilizer production as a practical step toward implementing sustainable organic farming. The program was conducted for members of the Gudangharjo Farmers Group, located in Paranggupito, Wonogiri, an area with significant agricultural potential but limited application of organic farming practices. The training focused on utilizing locally available materials such as cow manure, rice bran, banana leaves, molasses, and decomposer microbes to produce high-quality organic fertilizer. The methods employed included explanations, demonstrations, and hands-on practice to enhance participants' understanding and skills. Participants were introduced to the principles of organic farming, the benefits of organic fertilizers, and the technical steps of compost production, emphasizing the proper ratio of ingredients, aeration, and moisture management. The training outcomes showed an increase in participants' knowledge and motivation to adopt organic fertilizer production practices, supported by the availability of raw materials in the area. Members of the farmers' group who previously lacked skills in organic fertilizer production were able to independently apply the techniques after the training by utilizing easily accessible local materials. Training on organic fertilizer production is essential to enhance farmers' understanding of sustainable agriculture concepts that prioritize environmental preservation. Keywords: organic fertilizer, sustainable agriculture, training, community service.
