Chaidir - Ali — 2024-05-31

Sustainable development in the energy sector is a necessity, because the need for energy remains constant if not increasing due to population growth. This phenomenon also applies to Indonesia, which unfortunately has not yet properly implemented the concept of sustainable development in the energy sector. This research finds the urgency is because Indonesia does not yet have a clear direction in sustainable development in the energy sector. Using normative research methods with an evaluative approach, this research discovered the fact that the direction of sustainable development in the energy sector in Indonesia does not yet have a legal basis that regulates it comprehensively. Apart from that, population planning factors and providing energy subsidies are an integral part that cannot be separated in order to achieve successful implementation of sustainable development in the energy sector.

The objective of this community development is to test the newly designed smart lamp powered by seawater, and to disseminate the concept of cooperation. The methods used were assistance and coaching in the implementation of the smart lamp and seminars on cooperative concepts. The seawater battery lamp showed stable performance in the voltage range of 2.5 V - 4.5 V within 2 hours of fishing operation. the results of SONAR observations showed that fish began to approach under 10 minutes and gathered at 45 minutes with depths ranging from 1-4 meters. The lamp powered by the fuel oil powered generator is significantly brighter than the lamp powered by saltwater batteries. Some recommendation arises including the necessity for an alternative to zinc as a durable electrode, reduced tool size dimensions, a rust-resistant wire system, fewer cells in one battery unit, brighter lighting, and a more compact tool form design. The catches from both locations are also quite similar, including squid, cuttlefish, crab, and anchovies.

Firdaus Basbeth — 2024-05-31

Perikanan cumi-cumi di perairan Kabupaten Kaimana Provinsi Papua Barat, Indonesia, masih belum berkembang, walaupun potensi sumber daya perikanannya sangat besar. Pendapatan nelayan masih rendah dan tingkat kemiskinan masih tinggi. Selain itu, dalam beberapa tahun terakhir, penurunan populasi ikan dan cumi-cumi telah menimbulkan kekhawatiran tentang kesehatan ekosistem laut. Makalah ini berfokus pada pelatihan, pendampingan pembuatan dan pemasanagan atraktor cumi-cumi di Kabupaten Kaimana Propinsi Papua di Indonesia. Konsep nilai tambah hasil perikanan dan konsep usaha bersama melaui koperasi juga diperkenalkan pada masyarakat nelayan. Metoda yang digunakan adalah pendampingan pemilihan lokasi, sosialisasi atraktor, pendampingan pembuatan atraktor, pendampingan pemasangan atraktor dan seminar tentang konsep koperasi dan nilai tambah. Efektivitas pelatihan, dan pembuatan atraktor cukup tinggi (70%) dengan indikator keberhasilan yaitu pemahaman konsep dan kemandirian pembuatan alat. Sedangkan efektivitas atraktor itu sendiri setelah dievaluasi adalah 70% (sangat efektif). Ditemukan bahwa penerangan cahaya atraktor memiliki efek negatif pada hasil penempelan telur, sehingga disarankan untuk menambah rumbai-rumbai untuk membuat atraktor menjadi lebih remang-remang. Gagasan lain adalah pembentukan koperasi untuk memperlancar rantai pasok, termasuk penyediaan, kotak pendingin, alat angkut dengan membentuk koperasi modern dengan teknologi untuk membuka akses pada pasar yang lebih luas. Kegiatan PKM ini dinilai sangat bermanfaat dan nelayan di Kabupaten Kaimana sangat mengharapkan program ini dapat dilanjutkan ini secara berkala.
