Abstract

The majority of people in Ranugedang village, Tiris sub-district, own goat farms. The problem faced by goat farmers is the difficulty in processing goat manure. The community needs assistance to find the right solution in making efforts to process livestock waste so that it does not pollute the environment and can become a useful business product for the community. This community service aims to foster community awareness of creative living by processing animal waste into products of economic value. The community service method carried out with ABCD optimizes the potential from within and the physical assets of the environment. The potential is agriculture and animal husbandry as a learning environment and environmental physical assets as learning resources. The stages in the ABCD Method are; discovery, dream, design, define, destiny, and reflection. The results of the activity are an increase in the ability of goat farmers as the target of the activity to process goat manure into fertilizer. The conclusion of community empowerment activities through the manufacture of liquid organic fertilizer by utilizing animal manure can overcome the problems faced by goat farmers in processing manure that is not limited to producing fertilizer but has economic value.
