Abstract

Donowarih village, located in Karangploso Regency, has several potential of local commodities include orange, coffee fruit, sugar cane, cow milk, and tuber plants. Many of these commodities are still freshly and directly sold to middleman. Introducing post-harvesting technology to the community can help them to increase the economic values of the local commodities. The aimof this community development program was to transfer the technology and assist Donowarih Village to be one of the agro techno park (ATP) model in East Java. Several stages are required for the village to be idependetly feasible and viable as ATP. In this first and initial stage, the training and technology introduction to process orange, coffee, sugar cane, tuber plants and cow milk are required. Several activities, up to date, have been carried out include processing orange fruit into orange juice, orange syrup, jelly and orange candy. Meanwhile, for the coffee fruit, introducing coffee pulper to enhance drying process and increase the economic value of coffee bean has been done. In this case, coffee farmers are positively encouraged to process the coffee fruit themselves rather than freshly sold at a low price to middleman. Identification of potential tourism destination was carried out to support the creation of ATP Donowarih. Further stages are still needed to assist the development of ATP.
