Abstract

Indonesia is known as one country with a high diversity of flora. Several plants that grow in Indonesia produce certain compounds as medicines and as the primary raw materials in the pharmaceutical industry. The wealth of natural resources owned should be known by the people of Indonesia and can use them to improve welfare, including maintaining their health. The people of Sukajadi Village, Sungai Rattan District, and Muara Enim Regency need to be informed about the types, benefits, and methods of cultivating medicinal plants and making Live Pharmacies. This knowledge is advantageous to help rural communities overcome health problems with mild symptoms because, during the COVID-19 PANDEMIC, which has been going on for a long time, it turns out to cause concern. People fear contracting the COVID-19 virus, which is very dangerous if they go to hospitals, PUSKESMAS and other health facilities. Knowledge of the types, benefits and availability of live dispensaries in each residential area is expected to help rural communities overcome diseases with only mild symptoms and must continue to seek medical treatment. Medicinal plants are felt to have not been able to overcome the disease, especially for people with serious illnesses.

Abstract

The use of inorganic chemical fertilizers and synthetic pesticides in the cultivation of crops carried out by farmers has caused negative effects on the environment. Likewise, the disposal of household organic garbage by the community has caused pollution in the surrounding environment. To reduce environmental disturbances due to garbage deposits, household organic garbage can be utilized for making eco-enzyme. Eco-enzyme is a complex organic compounds solution resulting from the fermentation of organic garbage, water, and sugar. Eco-enzyme solution can be used by the community as a versatile cleaning liquid, for environmentally friendly plant fertilizer and plant pest control. Community service activity has been carried out in Gelebak Dalam Village, Rambutan District, Banyuasin Regency, in the form of counseling and demonstrations of making eco-enzyme solutions from fruit peels and vegetable residues.  Knowledge of eco-enzyme is very beneficial for the community, because, in addition to reducing the negative effects of organic garbage deposits on the environment, eco-enzyme is also useful in reducing the use of inorganic fertilizers and synthetic pesticides in plant cultivation activities.
