It was also said that after graduation tomorrow, the graduates will enter the real-world community.

“That’s where persistence and toughness will be tested; if you still depend on your parents, then the education you have received so far has not been fully achieved,” he continued.

News, Student, , , ,

Participating in government programs in an effort to prevent stunting, the research team from the Department of Chemistry at FMIPA UNEJ developed organic fish hydrolyzate fertilizer. Using this fertilizer on rice plants can produce rice that has a high content of important minerals, namely zinc and iron. Rice with a high zinc content is needed to reduce stunting, and high iron content helps reduce anemia and maintain the body’s immune system. This was revealed during an educational event for the farming community in Karangrejo Village, Jember (21/4) that was organized by the FMIPA UNEJ Chemistry Student Association.

At yesterday’s educational meeting, apart from the farmers who were members of the Karangrejo farmer group, there was also PPL Mrs. Yatmi, who had also paid attention to the independent study activities of Chemistry Department students in Kranjingan Village, Jember.
