Bioconversion of goat manure increased larval media use by 35% in a school, suggesting effective waste management.
This Community Service Program is carried out at the Salalimul Fudhola Bah Sarimah Islamic Boarding School, which has a problem of goat manure waste from internal farms as many as 120 heads. Through a bioconversion approach using Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae, the team assisted the students to process the waste into larval cultivation media. BSF larvae are known to be able to consume large amounts of organic waste efficiently, as well as produce products of economic value such as fresh maggots, dried maggots, and organic fertilizers. The results of the program showed an increase in the use of goat manure from 5% to 40% per month (around 120 kg), as well as an increase in the knowledge and skills of students up to 82.3%. This program has been proven to be able to reduce environmental pollution and provide sustainable solutions for waste management as well as student empowerment.
