Ploso Village is one of 11 villages in Tegalombo sub-district, Pacitan regency, which is 23 km to the north from the district center and has an area of 701.49 hectares. The majority of the villagers work as farmers with coconut as the main commodity. The author took the initiative to introduce a product derived from the waste of coconut fibers considering the use of coconut trees only on the fruit, shell and tree alone. This product is named "CENGPO" Kemoceng kelopo (Java language), which is the duster derived from fibers (coconut). The function of the duster is the same as the duster in general, it's just made of coconut fiber material. Usefulness of the Student Creativity Program (PKM) in the field of Society is to provide training to the community of Ploso Village, especially the mothers of PKK in order to develop their creativity in the home industry.
