EDUTOURISM AS AN EFFORT TO STRENGTHEN KELAN VILLAGE RESILIENT AND PRO-ENVIRONMENTAL TOURISM VILLAGE

Abstract

Kelan Tourism Village is located in Kuta District, Badung Regency, Bali Province, and has the potential for marine tourism and culinary tourism by utilizing sea products in the form of seafood as the main menu. This tourism potential is currently underway, but economically it has not yet had a maximum impact, as a result of the existence of complementary products in the form of vegetables to complement the seafood menu which are still purchased from outside the Kelan Tourism Village, even though the plantation area is still available. Based on these problems, the solution provided is the application of the Biofloc Aquaponics Integrated Urban Farming Model, Drip Irrigation Vegetable Garden Tilapia which is packaged as edutourism, targeting elementary school students, middle school students, tourists/visitors, and the Kelan Tourism Village community. The implementation of the solution shows that there has been an increase in understanding, knowledge and skills of the target groups, namely elementary school students, junior high school students, tourists/visitors and the community regarding Integrated Urban Farming Aquaponics Biofloc, Tilapia Fish Garden Vegetable Drip Irrigation. Apart from that, people involved in culinary tourism also experienced an increase in income, as a result of reduced purchases of complementary products in the form of vegetables that they were able to produce themselves, as well as strengthening environmental conservation.
