Training on Converting Organic Household Waste into Local Microorganisms (MOL) for Family Welfare Empowerment Movement Members
Abstract
This community service activity aims to increase the understanding and practical skills of Family Welfare Empowerment Movement women in processing kitchen waste into Local Microorganisms (MOL) as an alternative solution to environmentally friendly liquid fertilizer. This program was carried out in the Sutorejo Indah Housing area, Sutorejo Hamlet Village, Surabaya, involving 21 participants. The method of implementing the program includes theoretical socialization, distribution of guide brochures, and practical demonstrations of making MOL using portable plastic gallon reactors. The evaluation of the success of the program was measured through a quasi-experimental design using a validated questionnaire instrument of 20 multiple-choice questions (pre-test and post-test), which included an understanding of the concept of organic waste and the procedure for making MOL. The data was statistically analyzed through a paired sample t-test with the help of Minitab software. The results of the analysis showed a significant increase in understanding in the participants, which was marked by an average score that increased from 77.38 in the pre-test to 84.52 in the post-test (an increase of 7.14 points) with a p-value of 0.002 (p < 0.05). In addition, the 20-day fermentation process of MOL proved to be successful, characterized by a clear physical change in the color of the liquid that became a dark cloudy brown and the emergence of a distinctive aroma of fermentation that was sour and fresh. This activity contributes to equipping residents with organic waste management skills independently and sustainably.
