SDG 2: ZERO HUNGER
Being able to meet the nutritional needs of the world is a key element of sustainable development. Properly managed agriculture, forestry and fisheries can provide nutritious food for the whole community. Universities must be able to show how they contribute to solving hunger cases.
Achieve food security and nutrition that is far better than before and develop and ensure sustainable agricultural food production systems. This relates to other SGDs, as extreme hunger and malnutrition are obstacles to sustainable development. This is in line with SDG 8, namely decent work to reduce poverty and hunger.
Campus Food Waste
Padjadjaran University creates order, security, comfort, as well as safety, occupational health and the environment. There are regulations regarding the technical guidelines for order, security and safety of the Padjadjaran University campus environment.
1. Technical Guidelines for Order, Security and Safety of the Padjadjaran University Campus Environment
Having an “Integrated Waste Management” design is a very positive thing for Padjadjaran University. Organic & non-organic waste is sorted and processed for destruction & elimination of waste odors with decomposer bacteria. The process after that is the process of composting, composting and packing. This makes the existing waste useful and makes the environment more protected.

2. Unpad 3R Waste Management Concept
Unpad applies waste management with the 3R concept which refers to the Regulation of the Minister of Health of the Republic of Indonesia Number 3 of 2014 concerning community-based total sanitation; reduce, reuse and recycle. Based on data from the administration sector, the volume of waste generated from the Jatinangor and Dipati Ukur campuses is around 1 ton. It is estimated that the total waste that Unpad must process is around 30 tons. Consists of organic and inorganic waste such as paper, styrofoam, glass and plastic. Waste sorting at Unpad has now been carried out and is a simple first step of 3R activities. Generally, sorting can be done by type of waste; organic and inorganic. Organic waste includes food scraps from canteens and stalls, vegetables and other perishable waste. Inorganic waste generally consists of plastic, glass bottles, and cans. The potential for reuse of plastic waste needs to be increased through plastic waste sorting activities in the campus area. The main key to the success of this operation is the accuracy of waste disposal based on the existing containers. Accuracy is needed because every factor that speeds up sorting activities will save time and costs. If done correctly, almost 80% of Unpad’s academicians have carried out the sorting process, starting from students, lecturers, education staff to K3L officers.

1. 2020 Nobel Peace Prize Recipients Prepare Strategies to Prevent Food Insecurity During the Pandemic in Indonesia
Food insecurity is one of the issues that surfaced during the Covid-19 pandemic in the world. This issue is a serious problem, considering that food insecurity is still a problem that plagued 55 countries in the world in 2019. The United Nations World Food Program (WFP), which concentrates on eradicating hunger in the world, has taken part in dealing with the impact of food insecurity due to the pandemic. Covid-19. WFP as the recipient of the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize has so far collaborated with 80 countries in the world in eradicating hunger. Indonesia is one of WFP’s working partners. However, on the other hand, the level of inequality in Indonesia is still high, so that the handling of food insecurity is still needed.

1. Unpad Researchers Create Effective Food Supply Chain Scenarios During a Pandemic
The Covid-19 pandemic has had an impact on several aspects, including causing uncertainty in the amount of demand and supply in the food supply chain. To overcome these problems, the Padjadjaran University research team researched alternative decision-making related to the food supply chain. This team assessed the need to develop a reliable sustainable food supply chain system. One effective strategy that can be implemented is to develop a regional food hub or Regional Food Hub (RFH). RFH is a facility that collaborates with local and regional producers, aggregators, and distributors such as wholesalers, supermarkets, as well as hotel, restaurant and catering groups (Horeka). Although RFH research has been carried out in various countries, there are still few studies involving determining the location of RFH development and food distribution networks in various conditions, especially during a pandemic. The results show that optimal conditions are obtained for the three scenarios. Research has obtained optimal RFH locations along with food distribution networks.

1. Unpad Academics Create an Application to Determine the Quality of Rice Plants Through Smartphones
Rice is the main food commodity in almost all parts of Indonesia because it is a staple food commodity. Rice productivity can be an indicator of food self-sufficiency in Indonesia. The innovation that was developed called “Decision Support System (DSS) Padi” is an application on an Android-based smartphone that makes it easier for farmers and PPLs to identify the adequacy of nitrogen fertilizers and blast and brown spot disease attacks on rice plants. This application was developed by a team of lecturers and students from the Faculty of Agricultural Industrial Technology and the Faculty of Agriculture Unpad. The Paddy DSS is more practical and accurate than the identification tool that has been used so far in the field, namely the Leaf Color Chart (BWD). This application is the result of the first year of a three-year research program entitled Design of An Online Decision Support System for Wetland Rice Production. Through the DSS Padi application, farmers and PPLs can practically identify rice plants using their respective cellphones.

1. FTIP UNPAD Students Have Successfully Developed Instant Powder Ready to Bread from Original Cilembu Sweet Sumedang
Three Food Technology students, Faculty of Agricultural Industrial Technology, Universitas Padjadjaran succeeded in developing instant powder (instant powder) made from sweet potato. This instant cilembu sweet potato powder is made from small waste cilembu sweet potato that is not sold in the market and is usually only used as animal feed. “We claim HUI BOO as a product that has a big impact because apart from being used from leftover cilembu sweet potato which is considered as waste and has no selling value, the innovation of powdering it into instant powder makes it have a longer shelf life when compared to cilembu sweet potato which is consumed by fire in general. easy to consume anytime and anywhere because it only needs to be brewed.” Greg said as in a release received by the Unpad Public Communication Office.
