Abstract

Sialang Village is one of the villages in North Sumatra, precisely located in Bangun Purba District, Deli Serdang Regency. The village is surrounded by oil palm plantations, both company-owned and private, with the main livelihood of the villagers working on oil palm plantations and also raising cattle. The village's potential to produce palm fronds waste is very large, but the villagers do not use palm fronds waste because they do not know how to treat this waste. Meanwhile, grass as animal feed has become increasingly difficult to obtain from time to time because residents have maximized the use of empty land for planting oil palm. Therefore, the University of North Sumatra community service team wants to apply science and technology in Sialang Village in the form of transfer of knowledge and technology on processing palm frond waste into animal feed integrated with chopper machines.

Abstract

Fertilizer is the main needed for farmers to support agricultural products. However, the availability of chemical fertilizers in the market was once scarce due to its limited availability. To avoid dependence on the need for chemical fertilizers is to look for other alternatives as plant fertilizers. One alternative to chemical fertilizers is compost produced from organic waste. Compost fertilizer is available in several forms, namely solid fertilizer and liquid fertilizer. In this community service, training was conducted on making a simple composter to make organic fertilizer. The composter produced in this activity is very easy to do and made by partners because it comes from materials that are easily obtained around partners. The advantage of this composter is that it can produce both solid fertilizer and liquid fertilizer at the same time, but the concern of the service team is a liquid fertilizer because its use is more practical and easier for plants to absorb. During the training process, the partners were very enthusiastic about participating in the activity and asking questions related to composting. In this composter, the waste used is organic waste resulting from household waste which is placed at the top of the composter. Then the composter is closed and allowed to ferment by microorganisms. The results of organic liquid fertilizer can be accommodated at the bottom of the composter and then applied to plants in a ratio of 1:10.
