Abstract
The Community Service Program (PKM) titled Transforming Banjarrejo Village into a Climate-Smart Village through Climate-Smart Agricultural Practices aims to address two primary challenges: reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and decreasing reliance on chemical inputs in conventional farming systems. Banjarrejo Village in East Lampung, with a population of 6,793 — 2,652 of whom are farmers, faces land degradation and low income due to unsustainable agricultural practices. The open burning of agricultural residues and household waste further exacerbates GHG emissions. The proposed solutions include: Integrated Waste Management and Environmental Conservation—the processing of household organic waste combined with environmental conservation through Lubang Multiguna (Lu-Mu) or multipurpose infiltration pits to enhance water infiltration and soil fertility; Organic Avocado Cultivation to increase farmers' income; and Climate-Smart Agricultural Practices to improve productivity while reducing GHG emissions. The PKM activities were conducted in Banjarrejo Village, Batanghari Subdistrict, East Lampung Regency, from September to December 2025. The program achieved success through collaboration among the Ministry of Education, Culture, Research, and Technology (Kemendikbudristek), Politeknik Negeri Lampung, and local farmer groups. The results demonstrated a 14% increase in community awareness of climate change issues, improved capacity for mitigation and adaptation, increased household income, and measurable contributions to national GHG reduction through tangible actions such as planting 250 organically managed avocado trees and constructing Lu-Mu infiltration pits for household waste management and groundwater conservation.
