Abstract
  • This study is to value the used coffee beans as green fertilizer in Banda Aceh as part of community development services because Banda Aceh produces a massive number of used coffee beans every day. The willingness to pay method is applied to determine the value of used coffee beans, and total samples of 150 respondents are utilized in this analysis. The result shows that the respondents give high value for the used coffee been as green fertilizer because they believe that green fertilizer will produce a green product and environmental sustainability for the next generations. It is recommended that the government and society should encourage the use of green products in their daily activities.
