Exploration of FTP Cooperation which was carried out on Thursday, 19th May 2022 in the Aspiration Room, Badung Regency Tourism Office.

Luh Putu Wrasiati, M.P and I Gede Arie Mahendra Putra, S.TP., M.TP.

This exploration of cooperation discusses collaboration and synergy related to the downstreaming of research results by lecturers of the Faculty of Agricultural Technology for the development of creative industries to support tourism in the Tourism Village of Badung Regency. Mrs. Dr. Dewa Ayu Anom Yuarini, S.TP., M.Agb as the Coordinator of the FTP Unud Information Management and Cooperation Unit explained that the creative industry here can explore the potential of agricultural products from each tourist village, and from this potential processing can be done into creative products that have value added with packaging, labeling and fulfillment of requirements so that the product becomes fit for circulation and can become a tourist village product that can support tourism as a typical village gift. For example, a tourist village with potential agricultural products of spices, lemongrass and ginger, for example, can be processed into "herbal tea" products, lemongrass soap and "spice body oil". So we from FTP are ready to train, assist in making products, packaging, labeling, seeking distribution permits and even marketing methods for these products, said Anom Yuarini.

 

The exploration of this collaboration was welcomed by the Head of the Badung Regency Tourism Office Mr. I Nyoman Rudiarta, S.STP., M.M said that if this collaboration can be carried out later, he hopes to help in building a tourist village in Badung Regency, especially in developing creative industries to support tourism in tourist villages. The potential of agricultural products can be maximized into products so that a creative industry is formed that can be used as a characteristic of Tourism Villages in each Village.

 

 

Through this exploration of cooperation, it is hoped that later between FTP Unud and the Badung Regency Tourism Office can establish positive cooperation to advance the tourism sector in Badung Regency, especially with regard to product development that can be used as creative industry products as a characteristic of Tourism Villages. In addition, it is hoped that through this collaboration, FTP Unud can help develop village potentials in Badung Regency through the application and application of the Tri Dharma Perguruan Tinggi.
