University of Islam Malang has a sister village program in Codo Village, Wajak District, Malang Regency which is recognized as a high agricultural and animal husbandry potential. In recent years, farmers in Codo village have developed rabbit farms. Further, they had a rabbit breeder group. However, the increasing number of rabbit breeders raises new problems, namely the abundance of rabbit dung. Proper strategy is needed to solve the problem. This encourages UIM to conduct a community service program on technology transfer regarding making solid and liquid organic fertilizers from rabbit dung in Codo Village. The activity focused on three tasks. First, the counseling and training for making solid and liquid compost. Second, the counseling about the importance of using organic fertilizers for soil fertility. Lastly, the discussions on various soil fertility issues related to agricultural land. This community service activity was initiated in August–November 2019 and successfully carried out with the help of students as facilitators. The use of rabbit dung as a solid and liquid organic fertilizer provided additional knowledge for rabbit breeders. They got information about the quality of rabbit manure compost and its impact on agricultural land. As a result of this activity, 83% of the community has been able to make organic fertilizer based on rabbit dung and produce solid and liquid organic fertilizer products with different chemical compositions.
