Abstrak: New paradigm of conservation requires the national park to conduct collaborative management. National park management must involve the communities surrounding, including communities in the buffer zone. Thus, the national park management objectives in addition to conserve this area should also include the community welfare purposes (economic, social, cultural). Senaru is one of the main entrance to the area of Mount Rinjani National Park. As a community, who have been living together for a long time, Senaru community have a unique social and cultural values which upheld by its members. These values will appear in the practices of community life regulate relationships between people including the interaction between man and environment, especially the area of Mount Rinjani. To achieve the collaborative management of national parks, then the socio-culture of the community needs to be studied and assess whether or not wise that traditional practices. This research was conducted to identify traditional practices that apply and formal rules (external) which applied on the community, to assess the wisdom and seek alternative solutions empowerment of communities around the national park which based on indigenous knowledge. Research conducted during April-May 2007. Research done by qualitative with in-depth interview methods, field observations and equipped with a literature study. The data then analyzed through a reduction stage, presentation and data inference. The results showed that traditional practices are particularly applicable wass distribution pattern of land into hutan tutupan desa and gawah, prohibitions cut without permission from melokaq, tereng kedengcor, memorial to nature, collecting forest products (wood, rattan, reeds, bamboo) only for the customary. The formal rules that apply were the community must maintain a traditional village form (Perda. No. 9 of 1989), certification of land (SK Kepala desa No. 208/02/Pem.I/2006),termination of new land clearing for plantations and fields (SK Kepala Desa No. 101/10/pem.I/2005), and culturally specific utilization zone (SK 99/IV/Set-3/2005). The forms of indigenous knowledge that recommended as the basis for community empowerment of Senaru were patterns of land distribution, the technique of collecting forest products and technique of community gardening and farming communities. Empowerment approach in accordance with the community indigenous knowledge were community income through improved farming techniques and gardening and community involvement in national park protection efforts.

Abstrak: The Rinjani Mountain National Park (RMNP) has vital roles in supporting community life in Lombok Island, however, its availability tends to be threatened due to illegal logging. The poverty of the community around the forest is one of the factors affect the illegal logging. Generally, the purpose of this research is to formulate model design of community empowerment for sustainable management of RMNP. Specifically, the objectives of this research were (1) indepth study of the kind and main factors of interaction between community and RMNP, (2) to investigate the community perception and economic assessment toward the forestry resource of RMNP, (3) to analyze the relationship between income and participation in sustaining the forestry resources, (4) to formulate the model and local community empowerment strategies in managing sustainable forestry resources. This research approaches were conducted through (1) document study, (2) interview, (3) direct observation, (4) in-depth interview, and (5) Focus Group Discussion (FGD). The qualitative and quantitative descriptive analysis, multiple regression analysis, Spearman correlation and process hierarchy analysis were employed to analyze the collected data. Based on the considering aspect of economy, ecology, social and culture, thus, the empowerment model of community for sustainable management of RMNP is named the Model of MAHAR-RINJANI. This is the abbreviation of “Masyarakat Harmonis dengan Hutan Rinjani” means Harmonious Community with Rinjani Forest. This abbreviation is then syntheses to formulate empowerment model of community around the RMNP. There are three alternative empowerment models that could be implemented, including (1) improving the communities welfare and support capability of RMNP, through activities: integrated arboretum RMNP, climbing environmental oriented, and compensated of forest; (2) the model of welfare enhancement of communities by support capability of sustaining RMN, through activities: family forest, cattle rearing, and small scale enterprise development of non timber product; and (3) special model to optimize community participation in sustaining RMNP namely the complaint centre of RMNP. By considering the current real condition, the activity was prioritized on the cattle rearing by following legal traditional system called Sistem pengkadasan Sapi Rinjani (SIDASARI). By this model the number of survive timber is estimated 2 – 4.8 per year. The empowerment had to be conducted through three steps including awareness of farmers, capacity building, empowering and directing for sustainable harmonious between community members and RMNP. It is also managed comprehensively through participative and collaborative approaches in terms of economic, social, culture and institution aspect.

Judul: Evaluation of Influenza Antibody Titers in Serum and Egg Yolk of Layers Vaccinated with Influenza Vaccines.
Abstrak: Influenza belongs to the Orthomyxoviridae family which causes upper and lower respiratory tract infection. The aim of this study was to evaluate influenza-A specific antibody titers from serum and egg yolk of hens vaccinated with quadrivalent influenza vaccines. Three Hy-line Brown layers were vaccinated with quadrivalent influenza type A and B inactivated vaccines. Vaccination was carried out three times at a dose of 0.25 ml/chicken via the intramuscular route. The first vaccination was carried out at 24 weeks of age, then boosters were performed at 28 and 32 weeks of age. Serum and egg yolk were collected every week for 20 weeks since the first vaccination. Influenza A H3N2 and H1N1 antibody titers were determined using hemagglutination-inhibition (HI) test and agar-gel-precipitation (AGP) test. Influenza-A H3N2 and H1N1 specific antibodies were detected in both serum and egg yolk from the first to twenty weeks after the initial vaccination. Highest HI geometric mean titer (GMT) of H1N1 antibody reached 26.67 HIU at nine weeks post first vaccination (p.f.v), while H3N2 antibody reached 26 HIU at six weeks p.f.v. Our result showed that influenza antibodies can be produced in layers using quadrivalent vaccines and layer chickens are able to produce equivalent antibody levels for each influenza subtype.
