Partnership Development Strategy for New Farmers and Breeding Patterns in Pasigaran Village, Tanjungsari Subdistrict, Sumedang Regency
This initiative was prompted by the decline in the sheep population and genetic quality in Sumedang Regency, as well as the high youth unemployment rate in Pasigaran Village. The initiative aims to introduce multi-stakeholder partnership strategies and modern breeding methods to train new farmers and improve livestock quality. Partners involved in this activity include the Harapan Makmur Millennial Farmers Group, village officials, and agricultural extension workers. The method used was action research with a participatory approach through extension activities, Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), and a comparative study of Cibuntu Village. The results of the activity indicate an increase in community understanding of breeding management and the development of integrated livestock farming areas. Additionally, this activity successfully trained 30 new livestock farmers and formulated a draft village regulation regarding the utilization of small plots of land as community sheep farming areas. These findings demonstrate that livestock modernization supported by area-specific regulations can attract the interest of the younger generation while optimizing the village’s economic potential. The results of this community service initiative serve as a crucial foundation for building a sustainable livestock ecosystem aimed at improving community welfare and strengthening regional food security.

Video-Based Education on Hygienic Milking and Mastitis Prevention for Dairy Farmers in Giriawas Village
Milking practices that are not carried out hygienically can increase the risk of mastitis, lower milk quality and yield, and ultimately reduce farmers' income. This community service activity aimed to improve dairy farmers' knowledge of hygienic milking and mastitis prevention through interactive video-based education. The activity was conducted in Giriawas Village, Cikajang District, Garut Regency, involving 36 dairy farmers. The activities consisted of a pretest, delivery of learning materials, an educational video presentation, interactive discussions, a question and answer session, and a posttest. The evaluation results showed that the average score increased from 72.50 on the pretest to 86.50 on the posttest, representing an improvement of 14 points or 19.31%. Farmers had generally already applied several basic sanitation practices, such as keeping the barn clean, cleaning the udder and teats, washing hands, and cleaning milking equipment. However, understanding of foremilk stripping/inspection, hand-milking technique, post-milking teat care, and post-milking feeding still needs to be strengthened. These findings indicate that combining educational videos with interactive discussion can improve farmers’ knowledge and encourage a more participatory learning process. Follow-up activities are recommended, including hands-on demonstrations, on-farm assistance, and regular evaluations to assess changes in farmers’ practices and their effects on mastitis incidence and milk quality.

Edukasi Verifikasi Umur Sapi Kurban Berbasis Poel dengan Jenis Berbeda bagi Panitia Penyelenggara Qurban serta Evaluasi Kepatuhan Syariat di Wilayah Bandung
Age compliance (musinnah) is a mandatory syar'i requirement for sacrificial (qurban) cattle, yet in practice it is frequently overlooked because prospective sacrificers and qurban committees tend to judge readiness from body size rather than verified dental age. Field observation was conducted on 30 cattle offered for sale as qurban animals in the Bandung area ahead of Eid al-Adha, comprising 13 Limousin/Simental cross cattle and 17 Bali cattle, using direct incisor (poel) examination to determine age-compliance status. Results showed a stark contrast: only 1 of 13 (7.7%) Limousin/Simental cross cattle met the minimum age requirement, whereas all 17 (100%) Bali cattle were compliant. This gap is explained by the markedly faster growth rate of crossbred cattle, which allows underage individuals to reach a body weight comparable to age-compliant Bali cattle, creating a visual and economic illusion of readiness. Given the relatively similar market price range for cattle of comparable live weight, this growth-rate difference risks misleading buyers into purchasing underage animals. This paper recommends prioritizing Bali cattle, or ensuring mandatory poel-based age verification when crossbred cattle are selected, along with structured education for qurban committees and prospective sacrificers to prevent unintentional non-compliance with syar'i requirements.

Peningkatan Pengetahuan Peternak Muda KPGS mengenai Perkandangan Sapi Perah melalui Program Young Dairy Farmer Training di Fakultas Peternakan, Universitas Padjadjaran
This community service program aimed to improve the knowledge of young KPGS dairy farmers regarding the principles of dairy cattle housing through the Young Dairy Farmer Training program at the Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Universitas Padjadjaran. The program involved 23 young dairy farmers from KPGS as participants. The activities were conducted through an extension approach consisting of interactive lectures, participatory discussions, and knowledge evaluation using pre-test and post-test assessments. The training materials covered housing requirements, ventilation, housing systems, barn facilities, animal grouping, and housing efficiency. The results showed that the participants’ average score increased from 8.1 in the pre-test to 13.2 in the post-test, indicating a significant improvement in knowledge after the training. Discussions with participants also revealed that most farmers did not have separate housing for calves and sick animals due to limitations in land availability and financial resources. The program demonstrated that extension activities tailored to the conditions of smallholder dairy farms were effective in improving farmers’ understanding of gradual and practical housing improvements. These findings provide a basis for developing more applicable dairy housing extension and mentoring programs for smallholder dairy farmers.

Pemeriksaan Antemortem dan Postmortem pada Hewan Qurban untuk Menjamin Keamanan Pangan dan Kesehatan Masyarakat Veteriner Di Masjil Riyatul Jannah, Rancasari, Bandung
Pemeriksaan kesehatan hewan kurban selama hari raya Idul Adha melalui inspeksi antemortem dan postmortem merupakan bagian penting dalam menjamin kesehatan hewan, keamanan pangan asal hewan, dan pemenuhan ketentuan syariat Islam. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini dilakukan dengan pemeriksaan antemortem dan post mortem pada 14 ekor sapi dan 16 ekor domba selama pelaksanaan penyembelihan Iduladha 2025 di Masjid Riyatul Jannah, Kelurahan MekarJaya, Kecamatan Rancasari, Kota Bandung. Hasil pemeriksaan antemortem menunjukkan bahwa seluruh sapi dalam kondisi sehat, namun di temukan satu ekor domba dengan kondisi kurang sehat yang ditandai dengan mukosa berwarna pucat, bulu berdiri dan kurus. Pemeriksaan gigi menunjukkan bahwa mayoritas sapi yang digunakan untuk qurban masih belum poel atau tanggal gigi susu. Pemeriksaan postmortem menunjukkan bahwa kelainan mayoritas ditemukan di organ hati berupa spot-spot nekrosis akibat investasi cacing hati dan beberapa d temukan kelainan di paru-paru baik pada sapi maupun domba. Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa pemeriksaan antemortem dan postmortem berperan penting dalam menjamin keamanan pangan dan kesehatan masyarakat veteriner melalui identifikasi dini ketidaksesuaian umur hewan kurban serta deteksi perubahan patologis organ yang tidak layak dikonsumsi

Perbaikan Budaya Bisnis Pada BUMDES Maju Rahayu Desa Sukamaju Kecamatan Rancakalong Kabupaten Sumedang
Bumdes or Village-Owned Enterprises is one of the efforts for village development as stated in Article 78 of Law No. 6 of 2014. Village development is supported by community development, with three objectives: improving welfare, developing village facilities and infrastructure, and developing local economic potential. The economic practices of Bumdes Maju Rahayu are considered free assistance from the government, so that community participation is very minimal. This is due to the unpreparedness of the business system of the existing bumdes activities. Programs and actions are needed with the aim of benefiting the community, not only helping to alleviate but also being profitable. Based on this, the objectives of the community development program in the problems to be resolved include improving the Bumdes business pattern, creating effective administration for Bumdes business units, increasing community knowledge about Bumdes business products. The community service program was carried out at BUMDes Maju Rahayu, Sukamaju Village, Rancakalong District, Sumedang Regency. PPM helped disseminate information about the Bumdes Kiosk in the form of Banners and Pamphlets. The sustainability and development of Bumdes Kiosk Members is achieved through a counter-bill cycle, where stalls order staple foods according to the counter-bill value limit. Community Service (PPM) activities provide incentives by providing recommendations for the Bumdes Kiosk Membership System. Bumdes Kiosks must support and assist the community, therefore, activities that highlight Bumdes' commitment to the community are necessary.
