Banjir merupakan masalah yang hampir setiap tahun melanda wilayah perkotaan maupun pedesaan. Banjir disebabkan karena tidak lancarnya saluran pembuangan air (di selokan atau badan air) yang menyebabkan terjadinya luapan air, kurangnya kesadaran masyarakat untuk tidak membuang sampah ke aliran air, dan berkurangnya lahan terbuka yang berguna untuk resapan air. Penyebab banjir di wilayah perkotaan lebih banyak disebabkan oleh tidak lancarnya aliran air (di selokan) akibat sampah yang dibuang ke aliran air dan berkurangnya daerah resapan air di pekarangan rumah. Tujuan dari kegiatan pengabdian masysrakat ini adalah untuk meningkatkan pengetahuan dan keterampilan masyarakat di Kelurahan Maharatu, Kecamatan Marpoyan Damai dalam pembuatan lubang biopori sebagai upaya untuk penanggulangan dan pencegahan banjir di sekitar pemukiman masyarakat tersebut yang nantinya dapat diaplikasikan oleh masyarakat di lingkungan sekitar rumah.
The purpose of this research is to determine the activity of cinnamon extract (Cinnamomun burmani) as an antifungal against the growth of fungi Aspergillus flavus and Fusarium moniliforme. The procedure begins with making cinnamon extract obtained from cinnamon bark using rotary distillation method. Cinnamon extract will be tested using different concentrations of 0% (control); 0,5%; 1,0%; 2,0% and 4,0% with the well diffusion method. Based of the results, the cinnamon extract has antifungal activity against the fungi with the concentration and inhibition of 1,0% and inhibition zone diameter of 27 mm in A. flavus, while the concentration and inhibition of 2,0% with a inhibition zone of 56 mm in F. moniliforme.
Partners in the Stimulus Community Partnership Program (PKMS) are RT 08 RW 02 Pantai Raja Village, Perhentian Raja District, Kampar Regency. This partner group has a business as a catfish breeder (Clarias sp.). Catfish hatchery efforts in Pantai Raja Village have started 8 years ago. However, there are problems faced by catfish farmers, namely catfish attacked by diseases and death such as fungal diseases, white spots on the body of the fish. This is thought to be caused by water quality that is not good (poisonous) as well as a lot of residual fish residue at the bottom of the pond. Based on this, the team from the Stimulus Community Partnership Program (PKMS) Muhammadiyah University of Riau (UMRI) has conducted mentoring and monitoring activities to help resolve problems from partners. The forms of activities that have been carried out are socialization and training in aquaponics making. Based on discussions with participants during the socialization and training, it can be seen that participants' knowledge of good aquaponics is felt to be very lacking.
