The impact of the Covid-19 pandemic that has occurred has affected the livestock sub-sector, which is one of the drivers in the economy. The material for socialization of livestock product processing technology was the manufacture of chicken meatballs with a variety of mixed ingredients such as sworded koro beans (Canavalia gladianta) and oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus sp). The activity was carried out in Bilebante Village which was carried out by a lecturer at the Faculty of Animal Science at UNW Mataram in collaboration with UD. Azhari. The use of koro flour based on the results of the study showed that there was a very significant difference in the nutritional value of chicken meatballs that had been mixed with koro flour at the level of confidence (P> 0.01). For example, at the 20% treatment level, the nutritional value of protein, crude fat and crude fiber increased from 9.65% to 11.19% for protein, 0.64% to 0.84% ​​crude fat and 0.08 % to 0.27% crude fiber (Ni Made Andry Kartika and Alimuddin 2020).
