With this, the community will also have a source of family income, if the results obtained by utilizing the yard exceed the amount needed by the family. Depok village, Kandeman sub-district, Batang district is one of the villages targeted for the yard use program, where in this area there are still many yards that have not been used productively. The method used is socialization about the use of yard land, how to sow seeds and plant chili and eggplant with polybag media.
