In the era of globalization, the empowerment of local potential has become increasingly important, especially at the village level. The village of Semar in Pagerwojo District, Tulungagung Regency, is a major dairy-producing area, with 60% of its population engaged in dairy farming. However, the Sri Wigati Dairy Cooperative (KUD), which has traditionally been the primary buyer of milk, is facing management issues, forcing farmers to sell their milk to private collectors with limited capacity. As a result, a significant portion of the milk goes unsold, posing a potential economic loss. To address this, a previous community service initiative taught farmers how to process milk into milk crackers, although these products have remained limited to local consumption despite their added value. Therefore, the focus must shift to the regional or national market. This community service program aims to: 1) enhance the competitiveness of local products, 2) empower the community, 3) optimize the value chain, 4) increase income, 5) develop a sustainable business model, 6) foster partnerships, and 7) improve community knowledge and skills. The outcomes of this initiative align with the established goals, marking a positive first step towards improving the welfare and economy of the Semar Village community

The pattern of food and medicine consumption among children is a crucial thing that is important for parents and teachers to pay attention to at school. It is very important to provide guidance and reinforcement regarding hygiene, sanitation or food safety to food makers, including parents and the implementation team or school canteen organizers. Based on the results of initial observations, it was found that the food presentation met standards, but there were still teachers who did not understand how to use cooking utensils correctly. The aim of this service is to increase teachers' knowledge in terms of providing nutritious and safe food and the use of medicines that are commonly given in the school environment. The method used in this service is providing material in the form of counseling. The results of the service showed that there was an increase in the knowledge of service participants after being given counseling material in the form of providing food and medicine in a safe and hygienic manner.

Adolescent health efforts aim to prepare adolescents to become healthy, intelligent, quality and productive adults and participate in maintaining, maintaining and improving their own health. Healthy Eating is a measure of the suitability of the subject's consumption with the recommended portion sizes of the Balanced Nutrition Guidelines. Maximum IGS means proving that the quality of food consumption is good and in accordance with the recommendations of the Balanced Nutrition Guidelines. In contrast to previous ages, entering the adolescent development stage, the child's daily nutritional adequacy rate (RDA) will automatically increase. According to WHO, teenagers are residents in the age range 10-19 years, according to the Republic of Indonesia Minister of Health Regulation Number 25 of 2014, teenagers are residents in the age range 10-18 years and according to the Population and Family Planning Agency (BKKBN) the age range for teenagers is 10-18 years. 24 years old and not married. The role of balanced nutrition education in teenagers' daily consumption is very necessary so that teenagers understand the nutritional intake needed by the body to support their growth and development from adolescence to adulthood, consuming a variety of foods with various types of food high in calories, protein, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins to avoid disease and problems related to unbalanced nutrition.

Tower 1 at Institut Teknologi Sepuluh Nopember Surabaya is a high-rise building (High Risk Building) in the education and office sectors, experiencing an annual increase in energy consumption. Therefore, regular and thorough energy audits are necessary to save electricity consumption and ensure that usage aligns with the Indonesian Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources Regulation No. 13 of 2012. An energy audit is a method to calculate the energy consumption level of a building and determine potential energy savings through energy conservation. The Electrical Energy Consumption Intensity (IKE) is used as a parameter to determine whether the building's energy consumption is efficient or wasteful. The initial energy audit of Tower 1 was conducted quantitatively with on-site measurements over one year, covering the building's electrical system and area. The measurements indicated that the IKE of Tower 1 is 50.86 kWh/m²/year. Subsequently, the total installed electrical energy consumption load was calculated, yielding an IKE of 166.15 kWh/m²/year. Based on the initial energy audit results, energy conservation measures were recommended, including upgrading the lighting system with higher lumen lamps and adjusting air conditioning (AC) to the established standards. Implementing these recommendations resulted in an increased IKE of 176.04 kWh/m²/year, which is still considered efficient compared to the ASEAN-USAID standard of 240 kWh/m²/year.  

Waste is a waste product of human activities that continues to increase along with the increase in population, activities, and consumption levels. In Bengkalis Sub-district, Bengkalis Regency, there are many waste accumulation points that have not been handled properly, mainly due to the lack of information about the location of waste accumulation. This causes the Bengkalis Regency Environment and Hygiene Agency (DLHK) to have difficulties in managing waste transportation, even though it is carried out every day. There are still many complaints from people who are outside the waste collection point. To overcome this problem, this research aims to develop a mobile application-based garbage pile complaint application focused on the Bengkalis District area. This application is designed to assist DLHK in monitoring environmental cleanliness more effectively. The Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method is used to determine the priority of handling waste complaints, which will be implemented in a web platform to ensure optimal handling. Application development uses a prototype approach to ensure that the resulting application is in accordance with user needs and expectations. With this application, it is hoped that waste management in Bengkalis Regency will become more efficient and responsive to community complaints.    

This community service program aims to enhance the knowledge of the residents of Desa Bicak, Trowulan, Mojokerto, about Black Soldier Fly (BSF) maggot cultivation as a solution for organic waste management. The program involved 20 PKK members who were previously unfamiliar with maggots and their role in decomposing organic waste. The program was conducted in three stages: theoretical education, practical demonstration, and independent home implementation. The results showed an increase in participants' understanding of maggot cultivation techniques and the potential of maggots to reduce organic waste by up to 55%. In conclusion, the program successfully contributed to the promotion of SDGs No. 12 in Desa Bicak. It is hoped that this initiative will inspire positive changes in sustainable waste management within the community.

The management of household waste is an urgent global problem that must be solved to ensure environmental sustainability and human health. However, products available on the market generally contain chemicals that can have a bad impact on health and the environment if used in the long term. The Thematic Community Service Lecture (KKN-T) in Sarirogo Village, Sidoarjo Regency, seeks to improve organic waste management through socialization of the production of organic liquid soap with the socialization method. This method contains the provision of materials, workshops and discussions with village health cadres. This socialization provides useful understanding and skills for the people of Sarirogo Village to utilize organic waste around to realize environmentally conscious village consumption and production in accordance with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 12.

Parepare City is located on the coast with significant fisheries and maritime potential. The processing and consumption of shellfish in this city produces a lot of shellfish waste, which is often not utilized and accumulates into an environmental problem. To improve the properties of concrete, several types of additives that have certain functions are added to the concrete mixture, namely increasing the workability, durability, and hardening time of concrete. This study aims to determine the compressive strength of concrete and the composition of coarse aggregate of shells with superplasticizer added materials that are optimally produced. Using an experimental method carried out at the Laboratory of Structure and Materials, Muhammadiyah University of Parepare. The results showed that substitution of coarse aggregate with 5% shellfish waste and 0.5% superplasticizer increased the compressive strength of concrete at the ages of 7, 14, and 28 days. The 10% substitution still meets the compressive strength requirements at 28 days, although slightly lower than normal concrete. Substitution of shells up to 5% increases the compressive strength of concrete, and the 10% content is optimal, reaching the maximum value without significant decline. It is recommended that the use of shells as a substitute for coarse aggregate does not exceed 10% for optimal results and meets the planned compressive strength of 25 MPa.

Banking has an important role in the development and support of the country's economy, especially after the enactment of Law Number 10 of 1998 concerning Banking. Islamic economics in Indonesia has now begun to be recognized and approved by the public, given the proliferation of Islamic-based banks making people understand the systems in Islamic economics. The establishment of the Islamic Development Bank (IDB) in 1975 triggered the establishment of Islamic banks around the world including Indonesia. The birth of Law Number 21 of 2008 concerning Islamic Banking is a guarantee for the existence and legal protection of Islamic banking after the last decade of its existence which only regulates one of the principles of profit sharing which does not definitively and comprehensively regulate bank activities based on sharia principles. The method used in this research uses qualitative research methods using interview, observation and documentation techniques. This type of research uses descriptive analysis. The development of Islamic economic law in the future must increasingly refer to the protection of the benefit of the people by using maqashid sharia as a methodology and perspective. To establish economic law that falls within the scope of muamalah fiqh, a comprehensive mastery of ushul fiqh is absolutely necessary, especially to find and determine the legal illat for ongoing economic practices. Failure to determine the illat leads to failure to master the source of the problem. The current Islamic economics only talks a lot about distribution and consumption, such as the distribution of money and capital claimed to be without usury and halal product certification, and does not appear to talk much about production and all aspects related to it, such as ownership of land, resources, capital and by the private sector and conglomerates, including the fulfillment of labor rights, destruction of nature by production activities, and so on. The determination of the illat and maqashid of sharia in the economic field is also expected to pay more attention to the material conditions in which unequal production relations between community groups have resulted in economic colonization and which are very detrimental to society, especially those who are in a weak position in terms of capital, resources and power.

Honey is derived from plant nectar and pollen collected by bees. Honey contains natural sugars and nutrients but is prone to contamination by heavy metals such as mercury, copper, and cadmium from the environment. Honey quality standards stipulate maximum limits of contamination according to SNI 8664:2018. This study examined copper, mercury, and cadmium levels in native, cultivated, and branded honey using ICP-AES. Samples were randomly collected at the Laboratory of Pharmacy Faculty of University 17 August 1945 and metal levels were determined at the Regional Health Laboratory of DKI Jakarta Province from April-July 2024. Results showed all samples contained copper below the maximum limit of 5.0 mg/kg in the order of 0.243; 0.399; 0.297 mg/kg. Cadmium and mercury in the three honeys were undetected according to SNI's respective maximum limits of 0.2 and 0.03 mg/kg. Therefore, honeys of the three types met quality standards and are safe for consumption.    

Cervical cancer is a primary malignant tumor originating from squamous epithelial cells or cells originating from the vagina and urethra, usually occurring in the cervix or cervix which is located between the uterus and the sexual canal (vagina). According to WHO 2018, cervical cancer is the fourth leading cause of death in women throughout the world, estimated at 570,000, while new cases in 2018 or 6.6% of all cancers in women. Human papilloma virus or commonly called (HPV) is known to cause cervical cancer which can be transmitted through sexual intercourse, infection with several types of viruses, and personal hygiene. Symptoms of cervical cancer can be recognized by the presence of fluid from the birth canal, namely abnormal vaginal discharge, contact bleeding (bleeding during intercourse), and feeling pain during coitus / sexual intercourse as well as bleeding even after entering menopause. Early symptoms of pre-cancerous conditions are generally characterized by the discovery of abnormal cells. These abnormal cells develop into cervical cancer and then the following symptoms of cervical cancer appear; the appearance of pain and bleeding during sexual intercourse (contact bleeding), abnormal vaginal bleeding, such as bleeding outside the menstrual cycle, bleeding between regular menstrual periods, menstrual periods that are longer and more abundant than usual, bleeding after menopause, vaginal discharge excessive and abnormal, if the cancer has spread to the pelvis, the patient will suffer from complaints of pelvic pain, difficulty urinating, and enlarged kidneys. Cervical cancer can be prevented 100% by HPV vaccination, using condoms, avoiding tobacco consumption, and early detection and treatment of precancerous lesions.

Rice imports have been demonstrated to influence the Farmer's Exchange Rate (NTP) significantly. A reduction in rice imports by 356,286.2 tons in 2020 corresponded with a decline in NTP to 101.65. In contrast, per capita, weekly rice consumption did not exhibit a statistically significant impact on NTP, as evidenced by the lowest consumption in 2019 (1.504 kg), while the NTP remained at 104.46. On the other hand, rice productivity was found to have a notable influence on NTP, with trends in productivity closely mirroring those of the NTP. The harvest area, however, did not present a significant correlation with NTP, as demonstrated in 2019 when an increase in harvest area did not prevent the NTP from remaining at a lower level of 104.46. Lastly, rice production had a significant effect on NTP, with increases in production during 2021 and 2022 leading to subsequent increases in the NTP.                  

Rice prices in Indonesia have experienced significant fluctuations from 2019 to 2023, influenced by factors such as production, consumption, imports, international prices, and crop damage. The highest rice production was recorded in 2022 at 31,540,522 tons, while the lowest production occurred in 2023 at 31,101,285 tons. The highest rice consumption was in 2023 at 30,616,081 tons, and the lowest was in 2019 at 28,930,000 tons. The highest rice imports were in 2023 at 2,715,854 tons, and the lowest was in 2019 at 6,197 tons. Global rice prices also fluctuated, ranging from Rp. 6,674/kg in 2019 to Rp. 8,667/kg in 2023. Crop damage was lowest in 2022 at 470,131 hectares and highest in 2019 at 819,444 hectares. It's important to note that the fluctuations in rice prices are intensely influenced by several factors that highlight the need for effective price stabilization policies to guarantee the accessibility and affordability of rice for the public.
