Banyuroto Village, Sawangan District, Magelang Regency, Central Java is one of the many agrotourism areas that produces high local food potential. This area is located right on the edge of Merapi Tourism Park, precisely between the slopes of Mount Merapi and Merbabu. The potential that exists in this area includes the centers of local fruit and vegetable cultivation that are very popular with the people around them. In addition, local wisdom that is still very strong is felt in every behavior and activities of the community who are fond of gardening and farming in the fields. Some of the superior potentials of the area developed are strawberries and vegetables. However, this potential requires science and technology innovation because yields that are increasingly according to the cultivation techniques are still wrong and susceptible to disease attacks. Another obstacle experienced by farmers is the influence of environmental and seasonal stress on the production of fruits and vegetables so that harvest is not optimal. One technique for improving the quality and resistance of strawberries is biotechnology through genetic improvement in the genotypic and phenotypic properties of fruit, multiplication of chromosome numbers (polyploidization), this has not been done by researchers in Indonesia. Therefore, it is necessary to provide assistance, direction, training and cooperative relations from farmers with academics, industry and government to improve the quality and quality of Indonesian crops through the development and application of Appropriate Technology and community empowerment. The aim of the Partner Village Development Program is to develop integrated agricultural cultivation innovations through increasing production and greenculture in the greenhouse, developing central edu park in tourist areas that provide bio inventory of plants and animals, applying the benefits of organic farming in the cultivation of superior fruits and vegetables (broccoli , cauliflower, celery, tomatoes, chicory, mustard greens and cabbage), applying modified polyploidization technology through organic agricultural innovation to the potential of regional natural resources and providing innovation through synergy and sustainability of sustainable education about the cultivation of strawberry and vegetable crops polyploidization. In addition, it is expected that with this activity, cooperative businesses can be formed to accommodate, market and sell agricultural products, fisheries and country markets, provide regular training and assistance on cultivation-based innovations in empowering natural and human resources and provide skills. and expertise in maintenance and maintenance during sustainable strawberry cultivation. So that it is expected that at the end of this activity is able to build village independence through an industry partnership network to strengthen the potential of a rural and prosperous Agro tourism village. |
