Tanah sawah di Indonesia dan khususnya di pulau Jawa dalam kurun waktu 25 tahun terakhir mengalami dengradasi. Kandungan C-Organik tanah sawah dalam kategori rengdah < 2%. Lahan yang terdegradasi secara terus-menerus dapat menurunkan hasil dan tidak berkelanjutan. Penggunaan organisme dan produk eco-enzim mampu meningkatkan kualitas lahan sawah. Tujuan kegiatan pengabdian yaitu pembedayaan kelompok tani harapan desa slateng dalam rangka pembuatan eco-enzim menuju pertanian berkelanjutan.
