Food security is a crucial foundation in breaking the cycle of poverty, particularly in rural areas that are vulnerable to limited food access. The Government of Bangun Purba Village has implemented a food security assistance program through the distribution of livestock and crop seedlings as a strategy to improve both food availability and community income. This study aims to describe the implementation process of the program, identify supporting and inhibiting factors, and assess its impact on poverty alleviation in the village. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach with data collected through interviews, observation, and documentation. Informants include the village head, program coordinator, members of the Village Consultative Body (BPD), and program beneficiaries. Data analysis is based on David C. Korten’s Theory of Successful Program Implementation, which encompasses three main indicators: the program, implementing organization, and target group. The results show that the food security program in Bangun Purba Village has contributed positively to improving food availability for some community members. However, its effectiveness has not yet reached an optimal level due to uneven distribution of aid, lack of technical assistance, limited socialization, and weak coordination among stakeholders.

Rock stability and service life in geotechnical and mining engineering are highly dependent on the rock's mechanical and physical parameters, where the variation in sandstone grain size is a crucial intrinsic factor. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the correlation between sandstone grain size with uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) and resistance to weathering (Slake Durability Index) in samples taken from the Balikpapan and Pulau Balang Formations in the Samarinda area, East Kalimantan. The research methodology involved a series of standard laboratory tests, including rock physical properties analysis, grain size distribution analysis, UCS testing, and slake durability testing through three cycles. The test results show a significant correlation: sandstone with finer grain sizes and higher density consistently demonstrates greater UCS values and a higher Durability Index, indicating superior mechanical and physical resistance. Specifically, the Pulau Balang Formation exhibits a more compact structure and finer grain size, resulting in better durability values compared to the Balikpapan Formation. These findings are important as a geomechanical data basis for slope design planning, rock mass stability analysis, and material selection in infrastructure projects or mining operations involving both formations.

In the modern computing era, servers face significant challenges in data storage due to hardware failures, cyber attacks, or human errors. The problem highlighted focuses on the impact of file systems on three critical aspects: data integrity (accuracy and consistency of data without corruption), data recovery (the ability to restore data after a failure), and failure resilience (fault tolerance, such as redundancy and journaling to prevent downtime). The main issue is that traditional file systems like FAT32 or NTFS are often susceptible to fragmentation, metadata loss, or long recovery times, which can lead to data loss of up to 20-30% on enterprise servers, especially in high-traffic environments like cloud computing.A simple problem-solving process is conducted through a straightforward comparative analysis approach: (1) A literature review of popular file systems (ext4, ZFS, Btrfs); (2) Failure simulations using tools like fsck and stress testing on virtual servers (e.g., via KVM or Docker); and (3) Measuring performance metrics with benchmarking tools like Bonnie++ for I/O throughput, recovery time, and error rates. This process is designed to be simple, requiring only a virtual lab setup without expensive hardware, and is analyzed quantitatively with descriptive statistics.The solution to the problem indicates that advanced file systems like ZFS or Btrfs provide significant improvements: data integrity is up to 95% more secure through automatic checksums, data recovery is achieved in minutes through snapshots and RAID integration, and failure resilience is higher with copy-on-write features. The main recommendation is to migrate to journaling-based file systems for servers, combined with automated backups, which can reduce the risk of downtime by up to 50%. This research provides practical guidance for system administrators to enhance server reliability without excessive additional costs.

The Indonesian government prioritizes food self-sufficiency to ensure food availability and affordability as a pillar of national stability. The Food Self Sufficient Village Program (DEMAPAN) was launched as an effort to achieve food self-sufficiency at the village level, with Sodong Village as the pilot project location in 2024. This study aims to analyze the strategies employed by the Agriculture and Food Security Department of Tangerang Regency in creating food self-sufficiency through the Food-Self-Reliant Village Program (DEMAPAN) in Sodong Village, as well as the challenges faced. The research method used is descriptive qualitative, involving observation, interviews, and documentation. This study employs Kooten's theory as cited in Salusu (2006). Program Strategy, and Institutional Strategy have been implemented optimally through synergy between the Department, Village Government, and community groups, successfully increasing farmers' income, access to nutritious food, and sustainable training. However, in the dimension of Resource Support Strategy, the results have not been optimal due to constraints such as labor shortages, declining member motivation, and issues related to fund and land management. Other challenges include limited budgets, expensive agricultural equipment, and unfavorable land conditions. To achieve optimal results, it is necessary to enhance resource support, provide continuous training, and pay special attention to motivation management and human resource development.

Sampah plastik yang banyak beredar di lingkungan masyarakat adalah plastik sintetik yang sulit terdegradasi oleh mikroorganisme. Solusi untuk mengurangi sampah plastik sintetik adalah dengan memproduksi bioplastik. Bioplastik adalah plastik yang ramah lingkungan dan dapat dibuat dari bahan polimer alami seperti tapioka. Bioplastik berbahan dasar tapioka memiliki kelemahan yaitu kekuatan mekanik yang rendah sehingga diperlukan penambahan bahan penguat seperti carboxymetyl cellulose. Selanjutnya untuk menambah estetika, sifat tidak tembus pandang, dan warna putih dari bioplastik dapat dilakukan dengan penambahan pigmen TiO2. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh kombinasi perlakuan rasio jumlah tapioka dengan CMC dan jumlah pigmen terhadap karakteristik bioplastik. Variabel bebas pada penelitian ini terdiri dari rasio jumlah pati : CMC (99% : 1%; 98% : 2%; 97% : 3%; 96% : 4%; 95% : 5%) dan jumlah pigmen TiO2 (0,02 g, 0,04 g). Proses pembuatan bioplastik dilakukan dengan menambahkan pati dan CMC, lalu menambahkan sorbitol ke dalam campuran. Selanjutnya ditambahkan TiO2 sebanyak variable yang telah ditentukan kedalam campuran. Kemudian melakukan pemanasan di atas hotplate dengan suhu 70°C dengan pengadukan menggunakan magnetic stirrer selama 40 menit. Kemudian larutan dituangkan pada nampan plastik lalu dilakukan pengeringan menggunakan oven pada suhu 55°C selama 5 jam. Bioplastik yang sudah jadi akan dilakukan proses analisis terhadap karakteristiknya yang meliputi ketebalan, ketahanan air, degradabilitas, kuat tarik, elongasi, dan morfologi. Semakin besar CMC yang ditambahkan berpengaruh terhadap kenaikkan nilai ketahanan air dan kuat tarik bioplastik, serta menurunkan nilai ketebalan, biodegradasi dan elongasi bioplastik. Semakin besar jumlah TiO2 berpengaruh terhadap penurunan nilai ketahanan air, biodegradasi, dan kuat tarik bioplastik, serta menaikkan nilai ketebalan dan elongasi dari bioplastik. Kondisi optimum didapat pada perlakuan perbandingan tapioka dengan CMC sebesar 96%:4% dengan jumlah TiO2 0,2 gram untuk uji ketebalan, ketahanan air, dan morfologi bioplastik.

This community service aims to analyze the strategy for improving livestock feed security through the utilization of cassava leaves as raw material for silage and fermented feed in Sinar Harapan Village. The limitation of green forage during the dry season is a major challenge for farmers, leading to decreased livestock productivity and high production costs. Cassava leaves, which are abundant in this village, have great potential as an alternative feed but are not yet optimally utilized. Using a qualitative descriptive method that involved training and mentoring for 20 farmers, this activity focuses on processing cassava leaves into silage and fermented feed. The results of the community service show that the application of this simple technology is highly effective. Silage and fermented feed from cassava leaves successfully improved the nutritional value, such as crude protein content, and made the feed more digestible. The final products had a fresh aroma and were well-accepted by the livestock, leading to a positive impact on daily weight gain. Economically, the use of this local raw material significantly reduced additional feed costs, thereby strengthening the farmers' self-sufficiency. Strategically, this method allows farmers to store feed for the long term, ensuring year-round feed availability and supporting the sustainability of their livestock businesses.

Sustainable food security is a strategic issue in rural development that demands a comprehensive approach based on local communities. This community service activity aims to provide socialization and education about sustainable food security through a socio-economic phenomenological approach, focusing on the role of farmer housewives in Pondidaha Village, Konawe Regency. The implementation methods included educational lectures, focus group discussions (FGDs), field visits, and hands-on practice on sustainable food management, involving 20 farmer housewife respondents. The results showed that 80% of participants gained an adequate understanding of the concept of sustainable food security, local food diversification strategies, and an active role in improving family welfare through strengthening socio-economic capacity. The main challenges identified include limited access to resources, the dual role of housewives, and seasonal income instability. The solutions implemented include sustainable agriculture management training, food diversification counseling, and increased local market access. The socio-economic phenomenological approach provides a perspective that the life experiences, cultural values, and habits of farmer housewives are key elements in the success of food security programs at the community level. This activity contributes to increasing public awareness, skills, and participation in realizing sustainable food security, as well as strengthening the role of women in rural development based on local wisdom. This result is expected to be a model of community empowerment that can be replicated in other rural areas with similar characteristics.

Food security has become a primary concern in Indonesia, as the growing demand for food increasingly collides with the limited availability of agricultural land and the challenges of conventional farming. One innovative solution being developed is hydroponic cultivation, a soil-less farming technique that utilizes alternative media and nutrient-enriched water. This study aims to revitalize the hydroponic system in Kepatihan Village, Sidoarjo, through a community training program on pakcoy cultivation using recycled materials, particularly plastic bottles and PVC pipes. The program was implemented using a management approach consisting of planning, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation stages. The results indicate a significant improvement in participants’ knowledge and understanding of hydroponic farming after the training sessions. Community members were not only able to assemble simple systems made from recycled materials but also successfully cultivated pakcoy sustainably using PVC pipes and repurposed plastic bottles as growing media. Participants demonstrated creativity and innovation by modifying the design of the recycled bottles, reflecting a deeper comprehension of hydroponic principles while promoting recycling practices and reducing plastic waste. Despite the promising outcomes, several challenges were identified, such as pest attacks, nutrient solution contamination, and the need for regular maintenance to achieve optimal yields. Overall, this study demonstrates that hydroponic farming based on recycled materials is not only environmentally friendly and cost-efficient but also represents an inclusive, innovative, and sustainable urban farming practice. Therefore, it can serve as a practical solution to strengthen household food security while fostering community participation in developing modern agricultural systems in urban areas.
