Building entrepreneurship with sustainable environmental resources is a solution for the socio-economic and ecological conditions of suburban areas. This study aims to analyze public interest in processing alternative feed pellets made from organic waste and its determining factors. Data was taken from interviews with 31 respondents participating in organic waste treatment training in Brajan Tamantirto Kasihan Bantul, Yogyakarta. The results of the analysis showed that their interest in processing organic waste for alternative feed pellets was very high. Factors that influence their interests are environmental awareness, social media activity and participation in groups. Therefore, intensive assistance is needed to the community in the implementation of pellet processing as feed from basic organic waste materials. Thus, this program will contribute to the control of environmental, social and economic problems simultaneously so that this can improve their welfare and quality of life.
