Pelatihan Pembuatan Pupuk Organik Cair Berbahan Sampah Makanan Rumah Tangga di Desa Waru
Abstract
Abstract: Household food waste remains a major environmental challenge due to its high volume and potential to cause pollution when not properly managed. This community service program aimed to improve community knowledge, attitudes, and skills in converting household food waste into liquid organic fertilizer. The activity was conducted on 11 October 2025 in Waru Village, Parung District, Bogor Regency, involving 50 participants from the Women Farmers Group, youth organizations, housewives, and local residents. The program included an initial survey, socialization, practical training, mentoring, and evaluation through observation, interviews, pre-tests, post-tests, and documentation. The results showed improvements in all evaluated aspects. The average knowledge score increased from 3.33 to 4.33, the attitude score from 3.70 to 4.57, and the skills score from 3.23 to 4.23. These findings indicate that socialization, interactive discussion, hands-on practice, and mentoring were effective in strengthening community capacity to process household organic waste into useful products and to support sustainable waste reduction.
