SERDANG, UPM - The Green Sustainability and Food Security Secretariat, College Representative Council (MPK), Sultan Alaeddin Suleiman Shah College (KOSASS) Session 2023/2024 in collaboration with the KOSASS Agricultural Action Project Club (PGTK) has organized the KOSASS AGROSHARE Program which lasted for two days which is on December 6 and December 7, 2024. On December 6, this program takes place from 8 pm to 11 pm at the KOSASS Mind Center while on December 7, the program starts at 5pm and ends at 6.30pm at Agricultural Site A, KOSASS Agricultural Emergency Project.

The director of the program, brother Muhammad Afizzudin Bin Mohamad Azli explained that AGROSHARE KOSASS previously known as Bengkel Tani KOSASS (BETA) was aimed at sharing agricultural knowledge to provide exposure and knowledge about the basics of agriculture to collegiates, especially members of the PGTK club. This is so that club activities in the future can be carried out more smoothly.

On the first day, December 6, the program was filled with the presentation of basic agricultural knowledge presented by Mr. Ahmad Alfan Hidayat Bin Ahmad Khalili, as Agricultural Officer of the Putra Agricultural Center. He has shared about the basics of agriculture such as farming methods, fertilization methods, disease control methods and plant pest control methods. In this session as well, he explained the advantages of organic fertilizers and the types of fertilizers that can be used on plants.

Next on December 7, Mr. Shuhaimi bin Ab Rahim who is also an Agricultural Officer from the Putra Agricultural Center shared about the manufacturing and benefits of E.M (Effective Microorganism) to plants. In this slot, PGTK club members have the opportunity to experience making E.M as a practical experience. Brother Afizzudin said, "Preparation for this E.M manufacturing slot is very important because the use of 20 kg of pineapple is required in addition to water that has been stored for 7 days, fresh milk that has been fermented for 7 days, yeast, yakult, and molasses."

With that, PGTK club members are expected to be able to apply the knowledge that has been shared by the speakers during agricultural activities in the future. It is hoped that this new knowledge can also increase the quality of agriculture and increase the agricultural yield of the PGTK Club.
