Household waste management is a solution to support environmental sustainability. Eggshells, which have a high calcium carbonate content and can be used as organic fertilizer, constitute a waste that can be recovered. This article discusses the community service activities carried out in Pasar Rawa Village, Gebang District, Langkat Regency, with the aim of educating the community on how to use eggshells as organic fertilizer. This activity was carried out in three main stages, namely guidance to provide basic knowledge, direct training to practice making organic fertilizer from eggshells, and discussions to deepen understanding and answer to questions from the community. The results of the activity showed that the community was enthusiastic to participate in the training and that most participants were able to process eggshells into organic fertilizer independently. In addition to raising public awareness of the importance of waste management, this activity also has economic and environmental benefits. It is hoped that this program can be the first step towards building a culture of sustainable community waste management.

This study aims to evaluate the financial performance of the National Amil Zakat Agency (BAZNAS) of the Republic of Indonesia during the period 2019–2021 using Islamic financial ratios as the primary analytical tool. The assessment focuses on four key ratios: liquidity, solvency, amil fund efficiency, and activity, to measure the effectiveness, efficiency, and Sharia compliance in managing zakat, infaq, and sadaqah funds. The findings show that BAZNAS maintained high liquidity levels, though this was partly due to idle funds resulting from delays in fund distribution. Solvency ratios significantly declined in 2021, primarily due to the overutilization of amil funds exceeding Sharia limits. Although amil fund management was generally efficient and within the prescribed thresholds, weaknesses were found in budget control and operational management. Activity ratios indicated a positive trend in fund distribution, supported by the implementation of the SIMBA (BAZNAS Management Information System) technology. The study concludes that BAZNAS must enhance transparency, improve fund distribution efficiency, and strengthen internal controls to optimize its role in empowering the ummah in accordance with Sharia principles.

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) remains a major public health concern in Pidie Regency, Indonesia. Although digital surveillance systems such as SKDR have been introduced, the effectiveness of dengue control still largely depends on the role and capacity of surveillance officers. This study aimed to explore the experiences of dengue surveillance personnel in Pidie Regency, focusing on their knowledge, reporting mechanisms, encountered challenges, and expectations regarding the surveillance system. A qualitative method with a phenomenological design was employed, involving 11 purposively selected informants. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews and analyzed using the Miles and Huberman framework, encompassing data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The analysis revealed six main themes: officers' knowledge and understanding of dengue, sources of data and case collection methods, the use of digital applications for reporting and analysis, implementation challenges in the field, cross-sectoral roles and support from village governments, and officers' expectations for improvement. The findings highlight that limited resources, technical issues, and insufficient intersectoral collaboration hinder effective surveillance. Strengthening the surveillance system requires responsive strategies that consider on-the-ground challenges. A deeper understanding of surveillance officers’ field experiences is crucial for developing adaptive and sustainable public health interventions for dengue control.

This study aims to describe the application of Internet of Things (IoT) technology in optimizing soil health management through a systematic literature review. This research compares various IoT implementations for monitoring soil moisture, pH, and nutrients based on previous studies, and identifies differences in technological approaches, sensors used, and automation levels. The review results indicate that although IoT technology is proven effective for real-time soil condition monitoring and supporting precision agriculture, its implementation varies significantly between advanced systems with full automation developed internationally and simpler, local monitoring systems in Indonesia. The comparison shows that wireless inductive moisture sensors are superior in accuracy and corrosion resistance compared to conductive sensors. A TDS sensor-based hydroponic nutrient monitoring system demonstrated high accuracy with an average error of 4.7468% , while soil pH monitoring achieved an accuracy with a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 0.14. Furthermore, automated watering systems proved to reach a success rate of up to 93.75%. This review concludes that adapting low-cost wireless sensor system models has great potential for improving the efficiency of soil management in Indonesia, despite facing challenges in infrastructure and digital literacy.
 

Marketing plays a vital role in enhancing business competitiveness, particularly in dynamic market environments. This study investigates the implementation of the marketing mix strategy (7P) in AD Produksi, a garment manufacturing business in Malang specializing in ready-to-wear clothing. The objective is to identify suitable pricing and promotional strategies to address recent sales stagnation. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, using interviews, observations, and documentation as data collection techniques. The analysis was conducted using a SWOT framework to determine a more effective marketing strategy. The findings reveal that AD Produksi's business falls into SWOT quadrant III, indicating the need to minimize internal weaknesses while leveraging external opportunities. The study recommends adopting competitive and flexible pricing strategies, such as volume discounts and bundled offers. In terms of promotion, the use of social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok, alongside e-commerce platforms such as Shopee, is crucial for enhancing product visibility. Allocating budgets for digital advertising is also suggested to maximize promotional impact. The research implies that aligning pricing with competitor analysis, utilizing technology to boost efficiency, and strengthening brand presence through optimized digital marketing are essential for AD Produksi’s business growth.

This study aims to quantitatively test the impact of using audiovisual media in learning Al-Qur'an interpretation on students' understanding. This study was motivated by the low level of students' understanding observed when the interpretation material was delivered through conventional teaching methods. Using a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design, this study adopted a pretest-posttest model involving an experimental group and a control group. The sample consisted of 62 students, divided into an experimental group exposed to audiovisual media and a control group taught through traditional lectures. Data collection instruments included questionnaires and comprehension tests given before and after the intervention. The results of the t-test analysis revealed a significant difference between the two groups (p < 0.05), indicating that the use of audiovisual media had a positive and significant effect on improving students' understanding of Al-Qur'an interpretation.

This study examines the dilemma of rice import policy in Indonesia within the context of international trade and food security challenges. Rice, as a strategic commodity, holds significant social, economic, and political value, making import policies highly influential on price stability, farmers’ welfare, and national food security. The research identifies that import policies are often misaligned with domestic needs due to weak inter-institutional coordination, data inaccuracies, and pressures from political and business interests. As a result, import policies frequently create imbalances between the interests of consumers, traders, and local farmers, while also reducing the competitiveness of domestic rice due to inefficiencies in the distribution chain and post-harvest infrastructure. This study emphasizes the importance of data-based, transparent, and farmer-protective governance of rice import policies to strengthen national food security amid global trade liberalization pressures. hain, trade liberalization.
