Abstract
This community service program was conducted at KPSP Manunggal Jaya, Purbalingga, to address low feed efficiency, inadequate waste management, and the lack of product diversification in lowland dairy cattle farming. The program utilized the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach, implementing Low External Input Sustainable Agriculture (LEISA) alongside product diversification strategies. Three main strategies were implemented: (1) feed-based LEISA featuring forage chopping, concentrate formulation, and teat dipping practices; (2) waste-based LEISA employing portable biogas digesters (Feces to Fire) for renewable energy and eco-friendly slurry management; and (3) product diversification through pasteurized milk, yogurt production, and branding to enhance market value. An evaluation based on Kirkpatrick’s four-level model demonstrated significant improvements in knowledge, skills, attitudes, behaviors, and tangible outcomes, including energy efficiency, product variety, and farmers' income. The implementation of this program proves the effectiveness of LEISA and product diversification in fostering sustainable lowland dairy farming operations.
