Mayoritas masyarakat Desa Gekbrong sebagai petani yang masih menggunakan penyiraman secara manual sehingga biaya pengeluaran tenaga kerja cukup tinggi setiap bulannya. Selain itu, penggunaan air, unsur hara dan listrik juga boros. Oleh karena itu, pemasangan alat penyiraman otomatis diharapkan dapat menekan pengeluaran biaya dan meningkatkan produktivitas tanaman. Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan pada bulan Oktober 2024 di Kelompok Tani Gede Harepan, Desa Gekbrong, Kabupaten Cianjur. Kegiatan ini dilaksanakan dengan merancang, memasang dan melakukan pelatihan kepada masyarakat dalam penggunaan alat penyiraman otomatis. Penerapan alat penyiraman otomatis tanaman hortikultura berbasis panel surya beroperasi secara konsisten pada interval waktu yang telah ditentukan sebanyak dua kali yaitu pada pukul 08.00 dan 11.00 WIB, sekali penyiraman selama 10 menit secara bersamaan. Penggunaan alat penyiraman otomatis ini berdampak pada efisiensi waktu dan tenaga kerja. Dari segi produktivitas, tanaman hortikultura yang menggunakan sistem penyiraman otomatis ini diharapkan dapat meningkatkan pertumbuhan tanaman menjadi lebih baik dan hasil panen tanaman hortikultura dapat meningkat hingga 15-20% dibandingkan tanaman yang disiram secara manual.
Abstract. The majority of the Gekbrong Village community as farmers who still use manual watering so that the cost of labor expenditures is quite high every month. In addition, the use of water, nutrients and electricity is also wasteful. Therefore, the installation of an automatic watering device is expected to reduce expenses and increase crop productivity. This activity was carried out in October 2024 at the Gede Harepan Farmer Group, Gekbrong Village, Cianjur Regency. This activity was carried out by designing, installing and conducting training to the community in the use of automatic watering tools. The application of automatic watering tools for horticultural crops based on solar panels operates consistently at predetermined time intervals twice at 08.00 and 11.00 WIB, once watering for 10 minutes simultaneously. The use of this automatic watering device has an impact on time and labor efficiency. In terms of productivity, horticultural crops that use this automatic watering system are expected to increase plant growth to be better and the yield of horticultural crops can increase up to 15-20% compared to plants that are watered manually.
