Nugget is a high protein frozen food. Catfish is one of the raw materials that can be used to make nugget Catfish contains high protein, tastes good, has a soft texture and is relatively cheap. To increase the nutritional content, vegetables are added in the processing. Broccoli is one of the vegetables that can be added in making nuggets because contains high fiber and potassium. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of adding broccoli with different concentrations on the crude fiber, potassium and organoleptic values of catfish nuggets. The research design used was a completely randomized design with 4 treatments, each with 3 replications. The treatment in this study was based on the concentration of broccoli added, namely B0 (0%), B1 (25%), B2 (50%) and B3 (75%). Parameters observed were crude fiber, potassium, and organoleptic value of catfish nuggets. The results showed that the addition of broccoli at various concentrations had a significant effect (P<0.05) on crude fiber, and potassium value but had no significant effect on organoleptic values. The most preferred nuggets with the addition of broccoli was treatment B1 (25%). The addition of broccoli in the processing of catfish nuggets can increase crude fiber and potassium.

Based on data from FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization of The United Nations), it has been predicted that the aquaculture subsector will become one of the most relied-upon resources in the future, especially in meeting food needs, fish-based nutritional needs, and empowering the global community's economy (FAO, 2016). Catfish is a type of freshwater fish that can grow and develop well because it can be cultivated in limited land areas (Marsela, 2018). The frequency of feeding is one of the important factors that need to be considered in catfish farming. To determine the effect of different feeding frequencies on the absolute weight of dumbo catfish, a study was conducted using an experimental design called the Completely Randomized Design (CRD), with 3 treatments and a total of 8 replications. The test treatments were as follows: Treatment 1 (feeding twice a day), Treatment 2 (feeding three times a day), and Treatment 3 (feeding four times a day). The results of the ANOVA test showed a significant value of 0.000 (P < 0.05), indicating a significant difference in each of the different feeding frequencies. The analysis of the Least Significant Difference (LSD) test at a 5% significance level also showed that the relationship between each treatment had a significant value of 0.000 (P < 0.05). The average absolute weight of the fish for Treatment 1 was 12.99 grams, for Treatment 2 was 15.03 grams, and for Treatment 3 was 17.03 grams. The highest growth in the absolute weight of dumbo catfish fry occurred in Treatment 3 (feeding four times a day).

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a strategic role in economic development; however, their competitiveness is often constrained by weak branding and limited digital marketing capabilities.

In addition, a standard operating procedure for sharia-compliant digital content based on the principles of shiddiq (truthfulness), amanah (trustworthiness), fathanah (competence), and tabligh (communicativeness) was formulated to enhance consumer trust. The results indicate improvements in product professionalism, digital channel management, content consistency, and customer interaction. The integration of branding and sharia digital marketing proved relevant in building differentiation, expanding market access, and strengthening long-term business reputation. The program highlights that MSME digital transformation requires capacity building, continuous mentoring, and ethical value integration to ensure sustainable competitiveness.

Catfish farming is one of the fisheries areas with great potential in Indonesia. However, the problem of feed efficiency, use of probiotics, and air temperature control are still the main obstacles that affect the health and growth of fish. This study aims to design and implement an automatic system that can regulate the provision of feed and probiotics and control and control air temperature directly using the ESP32 microcontroller. This system has several important components, such as the ESP32 microcontroller as a control center, servo motors for feed and probiotic distribution, and DS18B20 temperature sensors to monitor air temperature. All components can be controlled and viewed through an IoT-based application with a Wi-Fi connection or applications such as Telegram. This trial aims to determine whether this system can provide feed and probiotics according to the specified time, and maintain air temperature in the optimal range (28°C–40°C) for catfish growth. In this way, the system is expected to increase efficiency in catfish farming automatically, reduce the need for human labor, and minimize errors in pond management.

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the implementation of the public sector accounting cycle in the planning, implementation, administration, and evaluation of catfish cultivation programs run by BUMDes Ajoeng Jaya as part of the village food security program. The focus of the research departs from the need to ensure that each stage of the management of the BUMDes program runs according to the principles of public accountability, considering that BUMDes is a strategic entity in the management of village resources to improve the welfare of the community. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach through field observation, in-depth interviews with the management of BUMDes Ajoeng Jaya, and a review of documentation related to catfish farming program activities and financial records. This approach allows researchers to gain a comprehensive understanding of the accounting practices applied as well as the various obstacles that arise during the implementation of food security programs. The results of the study show that the catfish cultivation program has failed due to weak internal supervision, the absence of SOPs, lack of financial recording and reporting, and lack of technical competence of managers. The implementation of the public sector accounting cycle has not been running optimally so that it is not able to support effective control and evaluation of programs. In addition, crop failures are exacerbated by theft by internal parties and the absence of a structured monitoring system throughout the program, which indicates weak governance and internal control. This study has limitations in the form of a small number of informants and a lack of formal documents, so the analysis—especially the financial aspect—cannot be generalized widely. Nevertheless, this study contributes by integrating the evaluation of food security programs through the implementation of the public sector accounting cycle and offering recommendations to improve the accountability, transparency, and sustainability of BUMDes programs.

As a result, there is an improvement in community skills with the realization of catfish harvest along with optimal kale growth, opening household business opportunities, and creating a sustainable empowerment model through appropriate technology transfer.

This study aims to analyze the economic and social impacts within the environmental context on the sustainability of catfish farming in Basanah Village. Environmental issues such as water quality, land availability, and land-use changes have significantly affected aquaculture practices. Moreover, the social dynamics of the surrounding community, including patterns of cooperation, public perception of catfish farming, and economic impacts on farmers’ income and welfare, are central to the investigation. This research employs a descriptive qualitative approach through field observations, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving local farmers, community leaders, and relevant stakeholders. The findings reveal that economic aspects, such as production cost efficiency and income improvement, are highly dependent on stable environmental conditions and strong social support. Conversely, environmental degradation and weak social participation hinder business development. Therefore, participatory-based policies integrating sustainable environmental management with the strengthening of local socioeconomic capacities are urgently needed. This study offers a significant contribution as a foundation for formulating empowerment strategies for environmentally and socially-based small-scale aquaculture enterprises at the village level.

The development of technology in the field of fisheries is very rapid along with facilitating human work in the field. Human work can be done by tools such as feeding catfish in ponds automatically. This job is easy to do, but problems will arise when catfish are not fed at night or are fed too late, then the catfish will eat smaller catfish so that it can be detrimental to catfish farming owners. With this background, the author created a "Catfish Feeding Control System Based on the Internet of Things (IoT) Using the Fuzzy Sugeno Method". This testing and discussion was carried out by functionally testing each component, testing the program using simulation and testing it as a whole. The results of testing the tool and taking data are expected to obtain valid data and the tool works according to its function and purpose as expected. From the results of the analysis and discussion of the research entitled "Internet Of Things (IoT) Based Catfish Feeding Control System Using the Fuzzy Sugeno Method" it can be concluded as a process of automatic fish feeding using the RTC module as a reference for catfish time three times a day with good results and the process of calculating the amount of fish feed 3 to 8% with fish weight from LOW to HIGH using Fuzzy Sugeno has worked well compared to the results of the BLYNK application.

Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) play a crucial role in supporting the national economy, particularly in the fisheries sector. This study was conducted through a direct interview with a fish farming MSME, GG Sawah Farm, managed by Legiono.
