UNS — Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB) Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS) Surakarta organized a community service activity for Karamba Fish farmers in Kedung Ombo, Ngargosari Village, Sumberlawang District, Sragen Regency. The activity focused on fish feed production training. The community service activity is part of a series of activities carried out by FEB UNS in the 46th UNS Anniversary celebration.
Reporting from feb.uns.ac.id, this community service team is led by Prof. Dr. Izza Mafruhah, S.E., M.Sc., who currently serves as the Vice Dean of Academic, Research, and Student Affairs FEB UNS. In her statement, Prof. Izza reveals that this activity not only facilitates training for Karamba Fish farmers but also provides 100 Kg of fish feed and one unit of feed processing machine.
“Other than the local raw material-based fish feed production training, which was delivered by Mr. Amien Cahyo, we also provide a fish feed processing equipment. For now, we only provide one processing equipment to see how the fish feed production developed. However, we also provided the necessary materials, specifically selected from sources that are easy to obtain from the surrounding environment,” said Prof. Izza.
Representing the Dean of FEB UNS, Prof. Izza directly handed over the fish feed processing machine to Ngadimin as the Chair of Sari Mulya Village-Owned Enterprise (BUMDes). With the equipment provision and fish feed processing training, the BUMDes is expected to optimize the processing equipment application, both for the village of Ngargosari’s benefit and for the Sragen Regency in general.
This activity was also attended by the Regional Development Planning Agency (BAPPEDA) of Sragen Regency, the Labor Office of Sragen Regency, and fish farmers. In this training, FEB UNS invited Amien Cahyo as an instructor, with participants from the Mina Tani Fish Farmer Group, as part of BUMDes Sari Mulya. The implementation of community service is a form of follow-up to the strategic study on ecological and educational tourism development in Kedung Ombo Reservoir Area, Sragen. Humas UNS
