Abstract

The PPK Ormawa program of the Universitas Islam Kebangsaan Indonesia was carried out with the aim of forming an institution of young farmers in Blang Seunong Village through the establishment of the Young Farmers Studio as a forum for learning modern agribusiness based on genjah coconut commodities. This activity involves students across study programs and village communities in order to increase human resource capacity, economic independence, and regeneration of millennial farmers. The implementation method includes institutional formation, technical training (Technical Guidance), and direct assistance in the field. The results showed an increase in the participation of village youth in agriculture, new skills in processing coconut derivative products, and an increase in students' soft skills in leadership, communication, and teamwork. This program contributes to strengthening collaboration between universities and the community in supporting village independence based on local potential.
