Abstract

Some residents of Sambirembe Village, District. Kalijambe works as a farmer, wood processing business and wood processing worker. This village has about 154 wood craftsmen who make home furnishings such as cupboards, chairs, tables and others. All wood craftsmen in making the kingdom still use simple tools. On the other hand, Wonosari Hamlet, Sambirembe Village, also has 25 wood processing business units spread from RT 05 which are individually owned. The wood processing will produce residual waste in the form of sawdust from sawmills. The estimated average amount of sawdust waste is 2 cubic per day. This creates environmental problems and lack of sawdust storage if wood processing produces continuous production. The target audience is wood craftsmen RT 05, Wonosari Hamlet, Sambirembe Village. The number of targets joined is 20 people. This activity is carried out by two methods, namely training methods and practical methods. The training method is carried out by providing theoretical material on the procedures for making sawdust briquettes, branding training, logo making training, packaging making training and digital marketing training. The practical method is carried out by direct practice of making sawdust briquettes. During the counseling and training event, the participants were quite enthusiastic in following the material presented by the presenters from the PKM team of the Proklamasi University 45. Likewise in practical activities, the participation of the participants was very dominant, so it could be predicted that the absorption rate of the material was very good. The output target is the formation of pilot groups of wood sawdust molded briquettes as the beginning of commercial business development, producing printed briquette products cheaper than firewood, and producing a technical manual for making molded briquettes from sawdust so that it is expected to be able to realize independence and improve welfare through increased family income.
