Kebonagung hamlet in Sukolelo village is an area where the majority of residents cultivate bananas. The abundant banana production generates a considerable amount of waste, one of which is banana stems that are usually piled up, burned, or left to rot without further use. Therefore, this community service project aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the potential use of banana waste as raw material for organic compost in Kebonagung Hamlet, Sukolelo Village. The methods used in this study involved banana farmers as research subjects and banana stems as research objects, with data collection techniques including field observations, interviews with farmers, and composting experiments. Simple laboratory analysis shows that compost from banana waste contains 1.8% nitrogen (N), 0.9% phosphorus (P), and 2.3% potassium (K), making it highly potential for use as compost material. In addition, composting activities can create new jobs through the development of organic fertilizer management business units at the village level. This is in line with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 12 on responsible consumption and production. According to Santoso (2020), the benefits of compost include: (a) improving soil structure, (b) increasing soil water storage capacity, (c) increasing soil microbial activity, and (d) reducing dependence on chemical fertilizers. Qualitative data were analyzed through data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing in the form of nutrient content analyzed using simple laboratory tests to determine the levels of N, P, and K. The banana waste composting process went well. In the first week, the temperature of the compost pile increased to 45°C, indicating high microorganism activity. The temperature stabilized at around 50–55°C. After the second week, the temperature decreased and stabilized close to the ambient temperature, indicating that the compost was mature.

Marketing is the backbone of a business’s existence. Various ideas, creativity, and innovations in marketing continue to evolve in different forms. To attract a large number of consumers, some businesses engage in overclaim marketing. While this strategy may bring positive outcomes for some companies, it can also have negative consequences for others. One brand that has practiced overclaim marketing is Daviena Skincare. This study aims to analyze the impact of overclaim marketing on consumer trust in Daviena Skincare products. The research was conducted using a qualitative descriptive approach, with data obtained through digital tracing and observation. The findings indicate that overclaim marketing in the skincare industry, as practiced by Daviena Skincare, has negatively affected consumer trust. The overclaims identified include promises of instant results, false claims about premium ingredients, and unverified testimonials. An investigation by Doctor Detective revealed significant discrepancies between marketing claims and the actual product composition, such as Niacinamide, which was advertised at 10% but was not detected in laboratory tests. These findings contradict the marketed product benefits, leading to consumer disappointment and decreased brand loyalty. This phenomenon underscores the urgency for brands to be more transparent and ethical in their marketing strategies. Therefore, overclaim marketing practices must be eliminated to maintain the integrity of the industry and protect consumers’ rights to accurate information and products that align with their claims.

This research is motivated by the role of the Sharia Investment Gallery (GIS) as a student laboratory for learning about investment. Based on the data, the number of investors in the Islamic Investment Gallery from the inception of GIS from 2016 to 2021 is unstable every year and is still relatively low. Even though the FEBI Faculty has good potential in attracting investors because there are so many enthusiasts in the FEBI departments. Low interest and motivation in investing in Indonesia is due to low knowledge and understanding of the capital market. GIS is expected to help foster student interest in investing in the Islamic capital market. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of Gis, both the constraints and solutions faced by Gis in fostering students' interest in investing in the capital market. This research approach uses descriptive method with a descriptive qualitative approach, namely research that seeks to describe a symptom, event, event that is happening now. The method used in this research is to collect data through interviews, observation, surveys, and documentation. The results of the study show the role of Islamic investment galleries (GIS) in fostering student interest in investing in the capital market by carrying out 4 roles, namely first, socialization as an introduction to the world of investment to students and inviting students to invest, second education, namely providing investment knowledge to students, third motivation, namely motivating students by giving examples of people who are successful in investing, the four integrity, namely the management of GiS applies a commitment attitude among the board, consistently carrying out their duties, being responsible, honest and courageous in conveying educational and motivational socialization to students. The internal constraints for Gis are the difficulty of coordinating administrators to be active in activities and the external constraints are the difficulty in getting students to participate in Gis activities and the lack of awareness of students to invest. The internal solution is to always hold monthly meetings to strengthen relationships between administrators and trigger back responsibilities as GIS administrators and the GIS Management also utilizes social media as a promotional medium so that it can be even wider to convey socialization and education to students. Meanwhile, for external solutions, GIS requests lecturer assistance to direct students to participate in all activities held by GIS. As for these 4 roles, the role most expected by FEBI students is the role of motivation. With good motivation given it can trigger students’ interest in investing.
