Pemberdayaan Karang Taruna Melalui Budidaya Lele dan Penanganan Pasca Panen Sebagai Pendukung Ketahanan Pangan

Abstract

The potential of Pasie Lubok Village with its abundant water has not been optimally utilized by the community due to the lack of public knowledge about good fish farming methods. Some families have taken advantage of this abundant water by making fish ponds in their yard, but this pond is only for fun or hobbies and has not been commercialized. The existence of fish ponds can also be food to support food security during the Covid-19 pandemic. This activity aims to empower youth so that they can take advantage of the potential of the village to improve the economy.
