Abstract

Household organic waste management in RT 01 RW 01, Talang Betutu Subdistrict, Sukarami District, Palembang City, remains largely disposal-oriented and has not yet generated economic benefits for the community. This community service program aimed to enhance community capacity in implementing a circular economy through the bioconversion of organic waste using Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae and the cultivation of mealworms (Tenebrio molitor). The activity will be carried out over a six-month period-from January to June 2026-comprising the stages of preparation, implementation, monitoring, evaluation, and reflection. The method applied was Participatory Action Research (PAR), consisting of problem identification, collaborative planning, action implementation, observation, evaluation, and reflection. The activity involved 30 participants, including housewives, youth, micro-entrepreneurs. The program was carried out through community education, technical training, demonstrations, cultivation practices, assistance in simple financial recording, and discussions on business sustainability. The results showed an improvement in participants’ understanding of waste sorting, BSF larvae and mealworm cultivation techniques, frass utilization, and business cost and profit calculation. The program also produced a community-based cultivation unit and a proposed flow of organic waste utilization into economically valuable products. The main contribution of this program is the integration of organic waste bioconversion, diversification of alternative feed products, and simple financial literacy as a community empowerment model based on the circular economy.
