Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk mendiseminasikan teknologi sambung pucuk pada masyarakat Giri Maju agar keunggulan karakter kultivar alpukat Giri Maju dapat dipertahankan. Kegiatan pengabdian pada masyarakat dilakukan sebagai salah satu bentuk kegiatan KKN-PPM Universitas Andalas tahun 2018 pada empat mitra kelompok tani. Metode kegiatan yang dilakukan meliputi pembelajaran masyarakat melalui penyuluhan dan diskusi, demonstrasi dan pelatihan menyambung.
