Waste empty palm bunches (TKKS) can be used as a basic material for making mushroom growth media. The purpose of implementing community education activities regarding the utilization of palm oil waste into oyster mushroom growing media is to reduce TKKS waste in Jati Mulyo Village and improve the quality of community knowledge as an effort to reduce palm oil waste into useful products.
