Based on the results of the visit, the Fish Farmers Group (Pokdakan) is engaged in catfish farming.

The service activity began with the counseling process for making catfish nuggets and meatballs followed by direct practice by the business partners of the Siwarak Mina Sejahtera Fish Farming Group (Pokdakan). In addition, the service team conducted outreach and assistance in the form of creating Shopee, Facebook, Instagram, Tik-Tok Shop accounts for the sale of M-GOOD FISH products. In addition, the grant provided by the Community Service Team to pokdakan partners is in the form of a food processor to make it easier for partners to continue the business of making catfish meatballs and nuggets from catfish and vegetable cultivation in buckets which has been carried out so that the added value of catfish products is increased at a price of IDR 25,000/day kg to Rp. 110,000/kg.
