Agriculture is the main sector for the community of Tanak Beak Village, Central Lombok, where around 78.98% of the population works as farmers. However, local farming practices still face serious challenges, including dependence on chemical fertilizers and pesticides that negatively impact soil fertility, environmental health, and farmers’ economic burden. An alternative is the use of organic fertilizer and botanical pesticides made from locally available materials, which are more eco-friendly and cost-effective. The Community Service Learning Program (KKN PMD) of the University of Mataram conducted training on the production of organic fertilizer and botanical pesticides to reduce reliance on synthetic inputs and promote sustainable agriculture. The method included problem surveys, socialization, training sessions, and monitoring. The training was held on July 24, 2025, involving 31 participants from farmer groups, village officials, students, and the local community. The results showed that most participants previously lacked knowledge of producing organic fertilizer and botanical pesticides. Through training, the produced organic fertilizer met maturity indicators such as earthy aroma, dark brown color, reduced volume, and stable temperature. Meanwhile, botanical pesticides made from garlic, soursop leaves, and lemongrass could be applied after 24 hours. Participants’ enthusiasm was high, as reflected in their active involvement during discussions and practices. This program successfully enhanced community skills and provided a sustainable farming solution based on local resources.
