Abstract: Wamena is one of the areas with the potential to develop a wide variety of food crops and plantations in large and medium quantities because it is supported by its natural conditions. Wamena, especially throughout Jayawijaya Regency and even other Regencies in the Central Highlands of Papua, are known for their organic farming. In order to support and maintain the productivity of organic farming systems, as an academic activist in the agricultural sector, it is necessary to conduct training on making organic fertilizer through the use of banana weevils known as Local Microorganism Fertilizer (MoL). This training was based on observations of farmer groups in the Wesaput district, where all farmers in the farmer groups had never used organic liquid fertilizers or inorganic fertilizers as additional nutrients to increase the growth and production of their agricultural products. Therefore we try to provide understanding and approaches to farmer groups through community service on how to make Local Microorganism Liquid Fertilizer in order to increase the yields of local farmers in the Wesaput District, especially the village of Kama. As a result of this activity, we saw that the farmer group community in Wesaput gave a good response so they asked for similar activities to be carried out again so that the farmer group community was more independent in making and using liquid organic fertilizer using the natural resources around them.

Counseling about drug abuse is very important, especially among youth generation.

The large number of theses will certainly make it difficult to find categories on thesis topics that have been written by students at a university. One of the uses of the Text Mining method is being able to group thesis objects into the number of clusters formed by the clustering algorithm. This study aims to compare 2 clustering algorithms, namely the K-Means and K-Medoids algorithms to obtain an accurate evaluation of the performance and computational time in the case of thesis clustering, so that relevant topics can be grouped and have better clustering accuracy. The evaluation parameter used is the Davies Bouldin Index (DBI) which is one of the testing techniques on clustering results, with the distribution of training data and testing data using cross validation using a repetition parameter of 10 folds iteration. From the results of the study with the Term Weighting condition used is Term Occurrences and using the N-Grams value is 2, it can be concluded that the K-Means algorithm has a better DBI value of -0.426. Meanwhile, the range of DBI values owned by K-Medoids with the same conditions has a DBI value of -1,631. However, from the visualization results using t-SNE with the same supporting parameters, there are options that can be used, namely the number of clusters is 6, and the DBI value is -1.110. For testing the computational time in the clustering process of 50 thesis documents, the K-Means algorithm has an average time of 2.5 seconds while the K-Medoids algorithm has an average time of 261.5 seconds. The computer specifications used are Asus ZenBook UX425EA.312 with the processor used is 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i5-1135G7 @ 2.40GHz @ 2.40GHz, the graphics card is Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics, the RAM used is 8GB, with storage of 512GB SSD.

Science and technology will facilitate human work. However, on the other hand it will increase competition. In facing intense competition, it is necessary to have competent human resources. Students are expected to be academically prepared, in the form of knowledge and skill readiness to face increasingly fierce competition. One way to see student competence is to look at learning outcomes that can be represented by the exam scores taken. The midterm exam (UTS) is a form of exam which is an assessment component. By knowing the UTS scores, the lecturer knows the distribution of students in terms of academic competence. For this reason, it is necessary to group (clustering) using the k-means algorithm as a consideration for lecturers in forming student study groups based on UTS value clusters.

National identity is a sign or characteristic of a country that can distinguish its characteristics from other countries, because the identity of a country lies in the concept of the country itself. Etymologically, national identity comes from the words "identity" and "national". Identity comes from the word identity which means the existence of a character, trait, or quality related to an individual, group, or something that distinguishes it from others. And National comes from the word nation which means state. And every country is obliged to implement constitutional behavior in the life of the state.
