The study aims to evaluate the pre-weaning production prospectus kids of PE crossed with Boer buck. Twenty PE does were in the average 39.35 kg body weight and 3 in body condition score. Does were offered single feed sesbandia glandiflora leaves twice a day. All does were synchronized by 2 ml Capriglandin, inseminate fix time at 48-52 hours following Capriglandin injection. If the does were return to estrus following AI, then they were allowed natural mating. Data collected included gestation period, birth weight and average daily gain (ADG), tabulated and calculated for Mean±SD, interpreted and explained descriptively. The number of kid were 34 consisting of 6 singles male (SM), 12 single female (SF), 8 male twin (MT), 2 female twins (FT) and 6 male-female twins (MFT). Gestation period (days) were 152±0.47 and 152±2.00 for SM and MT. Shorten gestation period were noted for SF, FT and MFT (149±3.82; 150±3.94 and 147±2.94, respectively). The highest birth weight (kg) was SM (4.27±0.29) followed by SF (3.52±0.27), MFT (2.97±0.44), FT (2.73±0.23) and MT (2.71±0.54). The highest ADG (gr/day) occurred at 0-30 days was in MT (201.33 g/d) and the lowest was in FT (137.33 g/d). In conclusion, crossbreeding kid of PE VS Boer goat has a high prospectus as dual purpose stockbreeder

ABSTRAK                                                            Upaya pengembangbiakan sapi melalui penerapan inseminasi buatan (IB) dengan semen beku terbukti berhasil meningkatkan produktivitas sapi potong di Provinsi NTB. Namun tingkat adopsi teknologi IB oleh peternak sapi di Kabupaten Sumbawa Barat selama lebih dari 10 tahun masih rendah. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk memperoleh hubungan antara pengetahuan, sikap dan motivasi peternak sapi dalam adopsi teknologi IB. Penelitian ini adalah deskriptif korelatif dengan metode wawancara tatap muka, rancangan cross sectional dengan bantuan kuesioner terstruktur dari 84 responden. Data yang diperoleh dianalisis menggunakan Spearman Rho. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 90,5% responden mengetahui manfaat teknologi IB dan hanya 8,4% responden yang tidak mengetahui manfaat teknologi IB. Sebanyak 60-70% responden mengetahui faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi keberhasilan IB dan tanda-tanda estrus yang diketahui dari keluarnya lendir dari vulva, warna merah vagina dan sapi menjadi gelisah. Sekitar 70% responden tidak memahami waktu yang tepat untuk inseminasi serta peralatan yang digunakan untuk IB. Semua responden setuju dengan program IB, namun, tidak ingin memiliki keterampilan dalam melakukan IB. Disimpulkan bahwa tingkat pengetahuan, sikap dan motivasi responden secara umum cukup baik dalam upaya untuk mengadopsi teknologi IB dan ada hubungan positip dan signifikan (p<0,05) antara pengetahuan, sikap dan motivasi.Kata Kunci: adopsi, inseminasi buatan, peternak sapi, teknologi ABSTRACTImproving cattle productivity in NTB by breeding using AI technology has been successful. In West Sumbawa District AI has been used for over 10 years, however, the level of its adoption is still low. The study was conducted to obtain the relationships between knowledge, attitude, and motivation of cattle farmers in the adoption of AI technology. A survey approach was used in this study and a questionnaire was developed to gather the data. The sample size for cattle farmers was 84. Data were analyzed using Spearman Rho. About ninety-five respondents apprehended the benefits of AI technology and only 8.4% did not know. Around 60-70% of respondents understood factors that affected the success of AI and recognized signs and characteristics of oestrus. About 70% of respondents did not understand the fixed time for insemination as well as the equipment used for AI. All respondents agreed with the AI program, however, they did not prefer to have skills in carrying out AI. In conclusion, the level of knowledge, attitude and motivation of respondents in general was quite good in the effort to adopt AI technology and there were positive and significant (p<0.05) relationships between knowledge, attitude, and motivations.Keywords: adoption, artificial insemination, cattle farmers, technology

This study aims to determine the involvement and role of ulama in preventing early-age marriage in West Nusa Tenggara. This study uses a qualitative descriptive approach with the type of library research. Data collection techniques using the literature review through various references related to research. The results of the research through a literature review are looking at government programs such as those related to early-age marriage, then the stakeholders involved are not enough from government agencies only.

For the past few years, Lombok in particular and West Nusa Tenggara in general have not only been known as an island of thousand mosques, but also as a world tourist destination, particularly Shari’a compliance (halal) tourism. With such a new branding, respective stakeholders on the island should therefore make an effort to plan strategies for presenting the concept of halal tourism that serve and benefit both domestic and foreign tourists. Dakwah (Islamic propagation/preaching) can play an important role in strengthening local people’s faith while also balancing between religiosity and tourism. This study looks into how the halal tourism ‘brand’ can be manifested in Gili Air, one of the famous small islands of tourist destination located in the northern part of Lombok. The study reveals that the dakwah strategies for shari’a tourism in Gili Air are carried out through twofold strategies, namely da‘wah bi al-lisān and da‘wah bi al-ḥāl. The first refers to a model where the activities of propagation revolve around preaching of Islamic tenets. The latter emphasizes actualization of Islamic doctrines into daily life.
