]]> UNS — Biodiversity and Genetic Engineering Research Group, Biology Education Program Faculty of Teacher Training and Education (FKIP) Universitas Sebelas Maret (UNS) Surakarta, held a community service program (PKM) in Mipitan Hamlet RT 01, RW 36, Mojosongo. The program was a workshop on artificial vegetative propagation of fruit plants and ornamental plants funded using the Institute of Research and Community Service (LPPM)UNS grant.

The PKM program was initiated by the Biology Education Program UNS faculty member Dr. Umi Fatmawati and Dr. Slamet Santosa as the speakers. The members of this PKM team are Dewi Puspita Sari, M. Sc., Dr. Halita, and Dr. Meti Indrowati, who received assistance from five students: Ana Atia Rahmawati Zahra, Endah Ayu Dewani, Istiqomah Widyawati, Mefta Rizki Qurrat ‘Aini, and Novian Wildan Rosyidi.

The workshop was held on Sunday (22/8/2021) and was attended by the Chief of RW Mipitan Hamlet, Widodo, PKK members, Karang Taruna members, and the local community in Mipitan Hamlet RW 36. Widodo, as the Chief of RW, welcomed the team and hoped that the program would benefit his hamlet’s people.

“This workshop trained participants on artificial vegetative propagation of fruit plants and decorative plants. The artificial vegetative propagations, in this case, are grafting, shoot grafting, and cuttings,” Dr. Umi Fatmawati explained.

In this workshop, Dr. Slamet Santosa explained the tips that can be applied at home to multiply the plants through vegetative propagations to increase the selling price. “Plants that can be grafted are, for example, lime, star fruit, and sapodilla. Then, ornamental plants that can be propagated by cuttings or grafting are aglaonema and euphorbia,” he explained.

Dr. Slamet juga also provided tips on taking care of plants at home, focusing on the planting media and nutrition from fertilizer. The team provided a tutorial on the vegetative propagations through grafting of fruit plants and cutting on decorative plants.

“Hopefully, this training on vegetative propagation for fruit and decorative plants could provide knowledge and benefits the community and can be applied directly on their plants at home. Therefore, it could be the source of income amid the pandemic like today,” Dr. Slamet concluded. Humas UNS
