Students of Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (UNY) have developed an innovation in the livestock sector by conducting practical training on the production of environmentally friendly fermented animal feed at the Campus Animal Husbandry Laboratory. This activity serves as an applied learning platform to introduce students to natural-based and resource-efficient feed processing technologies.

Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta (UNY) has once again spread the spirit of social care by distributing food packages to orphanages, students, and the surrounding community.

Students at UNY once again demonstrated their role in delivering real solutions for society. Through the Student Creativity Programme – Application of Science & Technology (PKM-PI), a student team introduced “SmartCleaner: Solar-Powered Cleaning System & Ammonia Monitoring”, to assist the farmers’ group “Kelompok Tani Ngudi Makmur” in Gunung Manuk Village, Patuk District, Gunungkidul.

The innovation emerged from concerns over a classic issue faced by cattle farmers: the barn is difficult to clean regularly and high levels of ammonia gas pose danger to the livestock.

The product is designed specifically to prevent blast disease in rice plants and to increase the resilience of the plants.
