Implementing a Technology for Agricultural Waste Processing: A Strategy for Providing High-Quality Sheep Feed in Sumberpucung

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This program was implemented to address agricultural waste issues in Sumberpucung District, Malang Regency, while meeting the demand for sheep feed at a more cost-efficient rate. The program's background highlights the utilization of previously underutilized agricultural waste, such as corn cobs, cassava stems, and coffee husks, as raw materials for livestock feed. Using appropriate technology, this waste is processed to enhance its nutritional value and shelf life, reducing dependence on relatively expensive commercial feed. The methods employed include community outreach, training, monitoring, and evaluation. Partner farmers were trained to use provided equipment to process waste into high-quality livestock feed and were equipped with packaging skills to create new entrepreneurial opportunities in agropreneurship. The program successfully enhanced the partners’ skills in producing independent livestock feed while supporting local food security and fostering sustainable economic development in the region.
