Activities for Determining Prospective Farmers and Prospective Locations for Recipients of Cinnamon Seeds Ready for Planting in Merangin Regency Spice and Plantation Commodity Freshener (BioCF) Activities for the Jambi Provincial Plantation Service in Rantau Kermas Village, total planting location of 44 Ha. The number of seeds given to the community was 22,000 seeds with the type of seed, namely Cinnamon seeds ready for planting. Planting was carried out by 25 members of the farmer group, the distribution of seeds was adjusted to the size of the planting location.

The average percentage of living plants at each planting location is around ±70% and ±30% dead, namely Bambang Lanang seeds and Surian seeds. This is due to inappropriate planting time. Planting was carried out during El Nino, which triggered a decline in plant quality, the spread of pests and plant diseases.
Plant maintenance, including fertilizing plants using organic compost and replanting, thinning and weeding, will be carried out in the first semester of 2024.
Apart from that, access to the planting location is quite difficult, with only two-wheeled vehicles and dirt roads resulting in death and damage to the seeds during the transportation process to the planting location.
