Enhancing the Production Capacity and Management of the Singkanaung Farmers Group through the Application of Appropriate Technology Assistance in Mokoditek Village, North Bolaang Mongondow

Abstract

Mokoditek Village in North Bolaang Mongondow has great agricultural potential, especially in corn and rice production. However, low productivity and limited technology have caused local farmer groups, especially the Singkanaung Farmers Group, to be unable to optimize their agricultural output. This research aims to increase the production capacity and management of farmer groups through the application of appropriate technology and intensive training. The results of the program showed an increase in corn productivity from 3 tons/ha to 4 tons/ha. In addition, financial management training has strengthened the capacity of farmer group members to manage agricultural businesses more efficiently and sustainably.
