Abstract:
Trashformers is a social project that has a mission to analyze problems from an
environmental perspective, in this case the environmental issue raised focuses on agricultural
waste as a sustainable solution to the soil pollution crisis. In this context, modern agriculture
often causes environmental problems, especially in terms of soil quality. Arang Hayati
(Biochar) was chosen as one of the approaches because it can improve soil fertility. We
Identified that there is a lack of community knowledge regarding sustainable management of
agricultural waste in modern agriculture. To improve the community's knowledge of
sustainable management of agricultural waste in modern agriculture, Trashformers used
SDGs 15 theory as an environmental sustainability effort and qualitative implementation in its
research. The goal of this project is to increase public awareness of the importance of
sustainable agricultural waste management using Arang Hayati (Biochar) in improving soil
quality and reducing the impact of other environmental problems. Efforts made in realizing
the objectives of this social project include an online campaign on Instagram
@Trashformers.id, as well as seminars and training. This project targets awareness and
knowledge to the Kelompok Wanita Tani Dahlia RW 10 Desa Sindangmulya, this is based on
a survey that has been conducted 100% of these members are willing to take part in seminars
and training on Arang Hayati (Biochar). The post-activity survey in Kelompok Wanita Tani
Dahlia RW 10 Desa Sindangmulya Showed that 76% of the participants chose to start using
Arang Hayati (Biochar) on their crops, indicating that the Trashformers social project had a
positive impact on the community.
