Abstract: Abstract There was a decrease in melon production as shown by data on several commodities, especially melons and some vegetables from agricultural lands under the Gapoktan partnership, it was reported that almost 60% experienced crop failure due to extreme weather and also the presence of pests that reduced the quality of production. If this problem is not addressed, it will cause huge losses in the future, problems in agricultural land due to extreme weather at the end of each year will reduce crop yields. The long-term problem that will occur if this problem continues is a decrease in labor absorption, even though the absorption of labor in the agribusiness sector, especially horticultural vegetables, contributes quite a lot to the workforce in the village. Based on these problems, the research team from the State University of Malang initiated a sustainable solution to overcome this integrated problem through the development of organic green houses on commercial melon commodities as an effort to increase national horticultural productivity by collaborating with education and assistance in the form of organic green houses for Gapoktan Berlian Nusantara Farm. Organic green house is an agricultural processing technology through a closed space that can prevent the entry of pests and protect melon plants from extreme weather in collaboration with solutions to improve agricultural land conditions through the application of the results of the development of Standard Operating Procedures for organic farming on melons, as well as the use of MOLP (Moringa oleifera Leaf Powder) as a nutrient for biofertilizer fertilizer that helps in fulfilling melon plant nutrition.
