Training on Making Compost Fertilizer from Organic Kitchen Waste in Liang Banir Village, Siak Kecil District, Bengkalis Regency

Abstract

Compost training activities are carried out in the context of the Real Work Lecture (KUKERTA) work program for building villages or community service. This activity is in partnership with the Village and the Liang Banir Village PKK Group. In this case, we are highlighting a superior disaster mitigation program in nature conservation efforts, namely preventing environmental pollution with the aim of reducing piles of rubbish, reducing the use of chemical fertilizers for yard and horticultural plants, as well as reforesting yard and horticultural plants around the house. The target of this activity is that every household can improve the cleanliness and health of the environment and increase greening using homemade fertilizer. The results of the activity showed that participants acknowledged that this training could increase participants' understanding, improve participants' skills in utilizing organic kitchen waste as compost, and motivate participants in efforts to prevent pollution of the surrounding environment. It is hoped that the output of this activity will be applied by every household at home and in the surrounding environment.
