Indonesia is the second largest biodiversity-rich country in the world. Abundant biodiversity makes Indoensia rich in the potential of plants to be used as a variety of flavorful vegetables, dried fruit, medicine and medicinal plants packaged in the form of herbs. Freedia is the flagship product of this SME which is downstream from the innovation products of Rachmat Hidayat and the team. Freedia is an herb that is processed as a brew drink to overcome diabetes mellitus disorder. The implementation of this activity uses methods of observation, interview, design, manufacturing, trial, application and monitoring. Based on the results of the application of extraction machines in UKM Hippocrates Medika it can be concluded that the existence of these machines greatly supports the production process of freedia herbs to three times more than before.
