Mon, 23 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0700

This community service activity aims to enhance the digital literacy of farmers in Aceh Barat Regency in utilizing internet-based weather forecasting platforms as a basis for planting season decision-making. Limited farmer understanding of scientific weather information contributes to high crop failure risks due to mistimed planting, particularly amid the increasing rainfall variability driven by climate change. The activity was conducted on February 10–11, 2026, in Gampong Suak Ribee and Gampong Suak Sigadeng, Johan Pahlawan District, Aceh Barat Regency, involving two farmer groups, Kelompok Tani Sapue Pakat and Kelompok Tani Baro Tabina, with a total of 64 participants. Implementation methods included the presentation of materials on Aceh Barat weather and climate dynamics, based on historical rainfall data from the Cut Nyak Dhien Meteorological Station (2010–2024), live demonstrations of three digital weather forecasting platforms (BMKG, AccuWeather, and Weather-Forecast.com), and guided hands-on practice sessions. Results demonstrated high participant enthusiasm and engagement, as well as a shared commitment to integrating digital weather information into agricultural planning. This weather forecasting technology socialization is an effective strategy for strengthening farmers' adaptive capacity to climate risks.

The utilization of satellite imagery technology has become an effective alternative for supporting land mapping activities in spatial planning and resource management. This study aims to map the land characteristics at Tgk. Chik Eumpe Awee Integrated Islamic Boarding School, Satong Village, Montasik Subdistrict, Aceh Besar District, using Google Earth. Observations were conducted at five specific locations using a combination of satellite imagery, GPS data, and visual analysis. The mapping results revealed significant variations in land conditions across sites. Locations 1 and 3 have rugged terrain and are not recommended for field activities due to accessibility and safety concerns unless it has been done with cut and fill. Location 2 is dominated by clay soil with a high acidity level (pH 4.0), requiring additional management such as liming. Location 4 consists mainly of rocky soil, making it unsuitable for cultivation activities. In contrast, Location 5, with sandy loam soil, shows potential for agricultural development, though further laboratory analysis is needed to confirm its suitability. This study demonstrates that Google Earth is a practical and efficient tool for preliminary mapping, spatial analysis, and land use planning.
