Community Empowerment in Training of Fish Preservation Processing Typical of Wetland Environment with Commercial Value

Abstract

Haruan, or cork fish (Channa striata), is an abundant freshwater marine wealth and is found in many rivers or swamp areas in South Kalimantan, including in the neighborhood of RT 05 Keliling Benteng Ulu Village. This fish has a high economic value and good nutritional content, especially albumin. Haruan fish is usually consumed directly by the community or made into salted fish. The problems found in the community are (a) there is no Haruan fish jerky production; (b) there is no knowledge of how to make Haruan fish jerky. The purpose of this activity is to increase economic selling value and provide nutritious alternative foods. Problem solving for partners is done by guiding the making of haruan fish jerky.
