This community service activity aims to enhance community capacity in utilizing rice husk waste
into value-added products in the form of briquettes as an alternative fuel. The activity was
conducted in Sungai Tuan Ulu Village, Astambul District, Banjar Regency, targeting members of
the “Kasta” Youth Organization and local communities. The implementation method employed a
participatory approach through three main stages: socialization, technical training, and
mentoring. The results indicate an improvement in community knowledge and skills in processing
rice husk into briquettes. Participants were able to independently practice the production process
using a simple briquette molding tool, although some technical constraints were found in product
consistency. Furthermore, this activity contributes to reducing agricultural waste and creating new
economic opportunities based on local resources. This study demonstrates that the integration of
community empowerment and appropriate technology is effective in promoting sustainable waste
management and improving local economic conditions.
