Abstract

The Pendawa farmer group located in Candirejo Village, Sibiru-biru, Deli Serdang, North Sumatra has processed cocoa beans into milk chocolate bars. The aims this activity is to find and increase the melting point temperature of milk chocolate bar products that have been produced by farmers. The low melting point causes the chocolate produced by the Pendawa farmer group to not last long and easily melts at room temperature in a short time. Some of the innovations the team provided were the addition of vegetable oil (coconut oil) and the addition of a tempering process before the chocolate was molded/frozen. The tempering process aims to change the shape of the crystals in chocolate. Based on observations, chocolate with coconut oil added has a good aroma and a shinier appearance compared to chocolate without coconut oil added. In addition, milk chocolate bar products with the addition of a tempering process have a higher melting point temperature than non-tempered products. Products with the tempering process also show a denser form than non-tempered chocolate bars.

Abstract

Deli Serdang is one of the largest centers in North Sumatra for cocoa commodities. Cocoa is strong life support for residents in Candi Rejo Village, Sibiru-Biru District, Deli Serdang Regency, especially for residents in the Pendawa Farmer Group. The abundance of cocoa harvest also causes an increase in the amount of cocoa husk waste. Still, some of the problems that arise cannot be overcome due to the limitations of science and technology. Until now, the abundant cocoa husk waste has just been piled up without any efficient processing. With training and socialization on making compost made from cocoa husk waste effectively and efficiently, the community and farmers in the Pendawa Farmer Group have increased their knowledge and ability to utilize cocoa shell waste as organic fertilizer independently. The use of compost made from cocoa husk waste is expected to increase soil fertility and create a bio-entrepreneurial spirit in the Pendawa Farmer Group.

Abstract

Bekiung Village is one of the villages in Kuala sub-district, Langkat Regency, North Sumatra province, Indonesia. Generally, the people in Bekiung Village, Kuala District have a livelihood in the agricultural and animal husbandry sectors. The main livestock commodities are cows and goats while the agricultural commodities are rice and corn. The partner's current problem is the accumulation of livestock waste that has not been utilized and also agricultural waste such as crop residues that are wasted even though this waste has the potential to be developed because it contains nutrients. Generally, farmers in Bekiung village still practice conventional crop cultivation using synthetic chemical fertilizers continuously, which have a physical and chemical impact on the soil and have an impact on health. The lack of knowledge of farmers in the utilization of livestock and agricultural waste is the main obstacle to overcoming these problems. The purpose of this activity is to utilize agricultural and livestock waste in making bokashi. The solution is empowering farming communities through training in making bokashi by utilizing livestock and agricultural waste in the hope of increasing farmers' income and can also be used in cultivated plants to reduce the need for synthetic fertilizers.
