Abstract
In rural development in the modern era, villages are required to be able to play an active, independent role and be able to fulfill their needs with their own abilities. This is stated in Law No. 06 of 2014 About the Village. The community service program aims to empower the people of Desa Baru, Manggar District, East Belitung Regency as an effort to improve the village economy through fostering vegetable cultivation in hydroponics. The method of activity used in the development of hydroponic vegetable cultivation activities are the lecturing method, discussion and demonstration of the practice of hydroponic vegetable cultivation. The indicators in this study, in general, indicate that there is an increase in participants' knowledge, which shows that when practicing, everything could do independently, could make a simple business plan, be able to explain again when given questions. Participants understand that when their narrow and critical land use is carried out intensively, it could provide benefits for the availability of healthy vegetables and could increase family income
