This study aims to determine the level of knowledge of farmers and students on the socialization of making MOL. The method used is a pre-test post-test one group design with a total of 44 respondents consisting of 26 farmers and 18 students who were determined purposively in January 2022. The increase in respondents' knowledge was tested using statistical paired sample t-test. The results of the implementation for farmers obtained that the correlation between pretest and posttest knowledge was positive at 0.154, significant at the =0.05 level, and for students at 0.657 indicating that the increase in post-test knowledge of socialization was not the same for every farmer and student. However, the level of knowledge of farmers on average increased from an average of 14.62% of students to an average of 19.44% due to socialization. Statistically, the level of knowledge of farmers and students increased significantly at the level of =0.05. This indicates that socialization is effective in increasing the knowledge of farmers and students in Kelindang Village, Merigi sub-district, Central Bengkulu Regency. ER -
