Optimalisasi usaha tani cabai di Desa Tanjung Baru melalui integrasi Biohayati PGPR dan Trichoderma sp. serta diversifikasi produk olahan untuk mendukung ketahanan pangan
Abstract
Abstrak
Cabai merupakan salah satu komoditas hortikultura yang memiliki nilai ekonomi tinggi. Namun, produktivitas dan keberlanjutan usaha tani cabai masih menghadapi berbagai kendala, terutama dalam pengelolaan organisme pengganggu tanaman, pemanfaatan teknologi budidaya ramah lingkungan, serta pengolahan hasil pertanian menjadi produk bernilai tambah. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan, keterampilan, dan kemandirian petani dalam menerapkan teknologi budidaya cabai melalui pemanfaatan agens hayati Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) dan Trichoderma sp., serta meningkatkan nilai tambah hasil panen cabai. Mitra sasaran kegiatan adalah kelompok tani Subur Makmur di Desa Tanjung Baru dengan melibatkan 10 peserta. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi sosialisasi, penyuluhan, pelatihan, demonstrasi, praktik langsung, pendampingan, serta evaluasi kegiatan. Pelatihan mencakup pembuatan PGPR menggunakan teknologi fermentor, perbanyakan Trichoderma sp., serta pengolahan cabai menjadi produk CAMBUK melalui tahapan sortasi, pencucian, pengeringan, penggilingan, dan pengemasan. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya peningkatan pengetahuan dan keterampilan mitra dalam memproduksi dan memanfaatkan Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) serta Trichoderma sebagai agens hayati. Berdasarkan hasil pre-test dan post-test, pengetahuan mitra mengenai produksi dan pemanfaatan PGPR serta Trichoderma sp. meningkat dari 55% menjadi 90%. Keterampilan mitra dalam memproduksi dan mengaplikasikan PGPR dan Trichoderma sp. meningkat dari 50% menjadi 85%. Selain itu, dari 40% menjadi 100% peserta telah mampu mengolah cabai menjadi produk cabai bubuk yang memiliki nilai tambah. Kegiatan pengabdian ini berkontribusi terhadap penerapan budidaya cabai yang lebih ramah lingkungan, peningkatan efisiensi usaha tani, pemanfaatan sumber daya lokal, dan penguatan kemandirian ekonomi mitra.

Abstract
Chili is one of the horticultural commodities with high economic value. However, chili farming productivity and sustainability continue to face challenges, particularly in plant pest and disease management, the adoption of environmentally friendly cultivation technologies, and the processing of agricultural products into value-added products. This community service activity aimed to improve farmers’ knowledge, skills, and self-reliance in applying environmentally friendly chili cultivation technologies through the utilization of biological agensts, namely Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR) and Trichoderma sp., as well as to increase the added value of chili production. The activity involved 10 members of the Subur Makmur Farmers’ Group in Tanjung Baru Village. The implementation methods included socialization, training, demonstrations, hands-on practice, mentoring, and evaluation. The training covered PGPR production using fermenter technology, Trichoderma sp. propagation, and chili processing into CAMBUK chili powder through sorting, washing, drying, grinding, and packaging. The results demonstrated improvements in the partners’ knowledge and skills in producing and utilizing PGPR and Trichoderma sp. as biological agensts. Based on the pre-test and post-test results, knowledge increased from 55% to 90%, while practical skills in producing and applying PGPR and Trichoderma sp. increased from 50% to 85%. Additionally, increased from 40% to 100% of the participants were able to process chili peppers into a value-added chili powder product. Overall, this community service activity contributed to the adoption of more environmentally friendly chili cultivation practices, improved farming efficiency, utilization of local resources, and strengthened the economic self-reliance of farmers.
