Abstrak
The integrated farming system is an approach in agricultural practices that combines various agricultural components such as crops, livestock, fisheries, forestry, and waste management into a unified system that is mutually supportive and beneficial. This integration creates a sustainable, efficient, and environmentally friendly production cycle. Tanjung Taipa Tourism Village, located in Lembo Subdistrict, North Konawe Regency, is a coastal village where most of the community is engaged in crop cultivation (such as clove, nutmeg, coconut, mango, and banana) and cattle farming. However, crop productivity remains relatively low due to poor soil fertility. Additionally, the traditionally managed cattle often damage cultivated plants, leading farmers to perceive them as pests. Moreover, the uncontrolled dispersion of cattle feces contributes to unsanitary, unhealthy, and visually unappealing conditions, which negatively impact the village's tourism potential. This community service program aimed to provide comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the integrated farming system to the residents of Tanjung Taipa Tourism Village. The outreach activity was at the Taipa Village Hall. The outreach method consisted of two main stages: dissemination and monitoring-evaluation. The dissemination phase involved direct presentations by experts to the target audience the local community of Tanjung Taipa Tourism Village. The activity was successfully implemented, as evidenced by the high level of participant enthusiasm during the discussion sessions, particularly regarding the integration of crops and livestock. Evaluation results indicated that the program achieved approximately 80.0% of its intended outcomes, which exceeds the standard success threshold for community service programs (>75%).
