Abstract

Juwiring Village, Cepiring District, Kendal Regency has agricultural land depending on rainwater for irrigating its fields. Besides being planted with rice, rice fields in Juwiring village are also planted with corn. Once ready to harvest, the corn that has been picked is separated from the cob using a corn sheller machine.

The main problem in this community service is that the existing corn sheller machine still uses diesel fuel and electricity. Whereas diesel fuel and electricity will someday increase. Solar is energy that cannot be renewed, for that it is necessary to convert fuel from diesel fuel to solar power, another obstacle when operating the machine is that workers stand for a long period of time, so that it will result in fatigue in the limbs.The solutions offered in this community service are: 1. Procurement of a Corn Sheller Machine with Solar Power to replace diesel fuel and electricity 2. Socialization of the ideal body position so as not to experience complaints of pain in the limbs. 3. Training on Operating a Solar Corn Sheller 4. Training on Maintenance of a Solar Corn Sheller.The output targets to be achieved in this Community Service are partners who are more empowered, namely by increasing production output, switching to the use of environmentally friendly (pollution-free) corn shellers, understanding work comfort and ergonomics, being able to operate and maintain corn shellers using solar power
