Abstract

The cultivation of maggots or black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia illucens) is a business that has prospects for the growth of new entrepreneurs among students. Maggot can be utilized as a source of quality protein in livestock and fish rations and promises economic benefits in its cultivation. The purpose of this project is to provide training in the form of enriching the knowledge and skills of maggot cultivation for animal husbandry students who have the potential to become new entrepreneurs. Twenty participants or target partners were students of the Animal Husbandry Study Program at the Faculty of Animal Husbandry, Marine and Fisheries, Nusa Cendana University. Activities are divided into extension activities in the form of enriching knowledge about maggot cultivation and training activities in the form of cage making, provision of feed, and feed formulations for maggot rearing. The results of the activity showed a high interest from participants to follow up the activity in an intensive effort. It was concluded that participants gained enrichment of knowledge and skills in maggot cultivation, business management, and marketing. It is expected that participants will become independent in developing their knowledge and skills in the field of maggot cultivation business and become promising new entrepreneurs.

ABSTRAK

Budidaya maggot atau larva lalat black soldier (Hermetia illucens) merupakan suatu usaha yang memiliki prospek bagi tumbuhnya wirausaha baru di kalangan mahasiswa. Maggot dapat dimanfaatkan sebagai sumber protein berkualitas dalam ransum ternak dan ikan dan menjanjikan keuntungan ekonomi dalam usaha budidayanya. Tujuan kegiatan ini adalah memberikan pelatihan berupa pengayaan pengetahuan dan ketrampilan budidaya maggot bagi mahasiswa peternakan yang potensial menjadi wirausaha baru. Peserta atau sasaran mitra kegiatan adalah mahasiswa Program Studi Peternakan pada Fakultas Peternakan, Kelautan dan Perikanan, Universitas Nusa Cendana sebanyak dua puluh orang. Kegiatan dibagi menjadi kegiatan penyuluhan berupa pengayaan pengetahuan tentang budidaya maggot dan kegiatan pelatihan berupa pembuatan kandang, penyediaan pakan dan formulasi pakan untuk pemeliharaan maggot. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan adanya minat yang tinggi dari peserta untuk menindaklanjuti kegiatan dalam usaha yang intensif. Disimpulkan bahwa peserta mendapat pengayaan pengetahuan dan ketrampilan tentang usaha budidaya, pengelolaan usaha, dan pemasaran maggot.

Diharapkan peserta menjadi mandiri dalam mengembangkan pengetahuan dan ketrampilannya di bidang usaha budidaya maggot dan menjadi wirausaha baru yang menjanjikan.

Kata Kunci: Budidaya, maggot, mahasiswa, pengetahuan dan praktek, potensial wirausaha
