Abstract

Several areas in Tanah Datar Regency, including Rangkat and Lima Kaum Districts, are beginning to experience drought, threatening crop failure due to the extreme heat. This situation is further aggravated by the Galodo disaster that occurred in 2024. The purpose of this study is to transform Lima Kaum Village into a community resilient to drought disasters. The methods employed include counseling, training, workshops, and field practice assistance. The outcomes of the study are as follows: 1) an increase in community knowledge and skills to effectively address drought disasters, 2) improved understanding and skills in maintaining and restoring the fertility of rice fields, particularly after the Galodo disaster, 3) enhanced knowledge in managing planting patterns to adapt to the unbalanced dry and rainy seasons, and 4) an increase in farmers' knowledge of producing eco-enzyme as a sustainable solution for improving agricultural productivity.
