Judul: Factors Associated With The Level Of Knowledge Of Dairy Cattle Farmers Towards Brucellosis In Kawasan Usaha Peternakan (Kunak),
Abstrak: Level of farmers knowledge have an importance in the disease prevention and control of livestock. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the level of KUNAK dairy cattle farmers knowledge regarding brucellosis and factors that associated to it. This research used a secondary data from a research regarding brucellosis done by Faculty of Veterinary Medicine IPB University. Seventy farmers are selected at random as respondent for this research. Data was collected through interviewing respondent based on the questionnaire regarding the knowledge of brucellosis in terms of its mode of transmission, symptoms, prevention and treatment. Questionnaire was done in the form of closed question with three choice either ‘True’, ‘False’ or ‘No Idea’ with a scoring method of 1-0-0 respectively. A series of questions were asked to the respondence (70 people) regarding their knowledge of brucellosis on mode of transmission, symptom, prevention and treatment. The general result of the level of knowledge of farmers in KUNAK are from moderate to good being the majority of them were in that category. The farmers of KUNAK had a higher level of knowledge in terms of prevention and symptoms of brucellosis than mode of transmission or treatment of it. The risk factor that has the most significance to the level of knowledge of KUNAK dairy farmers are the ones with a working experience more than 5 years in this field with 18 times more knowledgeable than farmers with less than 5 years of working experience. The need of disease awareness programs is required for the farmers in broadening their minds towards other aspects of a disease for them to better combat the problems in their day to day business.

Judul: Attitude of Dairy Cattle Farmers Towards Brucellosis at Kawasan Usaha Peternakan (Kunak) District Bogor
Abstrak: Farmer’s attitude plays an important role for prevention and control the brucellosis in cattle. This study used to identify the level of attitude dairy cattle farmers and the factors that influences the farmer’s attitude. The data used for this study are a secondary source data received from a previous research regarding of Brucellosis 2018 at Kawasan Usaha Peternakan (KUNAK), District Bogor done by Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, IPB University and Fisheries and Livestock Office of District Bogor. This studied were conduct at KUNAK, District Bogor with 65 respondents to find out the attitude farmers towards brucellosis by cross sectional method. The data collected were analyzed by descriptively and quantitatively. The quantitative analysis was done through chi square test in determining the association of risks factor affecting level of dairy cattle farmer’s attitude and odds ratio (OR) in determining the strength of affecting level of dairy cattle farmer’s attitude. Based on this study, majority (77%) of farmers have a positive attitude towards brucellosis. Farmers showed positive attitude about brucellosis mainly in causes (83.1%), transmission (60%) and clinical signs (60%). Risk factors that influence the attitude of farmers are knowledge, history of abortion and history of vaccination have a significance value with the dairy cattle farmers attitude. Level of dairy cattle farmer’s attitude can be improved through counseling by veterinary service directly when doing the vaccination and treatment of abortion.

Judul: Pembuatan Film Tipis Cu2ZnSnS4 sebagai Lapisan Penyerap Cahaya pada Sel Surya Menggunakan Metode Elektrodeposisi
Abstrak: Thin film of Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS) is an alternative semiconductor used as light absorber layer on solar cell. CZTS can replace silicon that commonly used as commercial semiconductor. The advantage of using CZTS as absorber layer is due to the abundance of its chemical composer on earth, and its high value of absorption coefficient. The absorber layer was made by using electrodeposition method on ITO glass substrates. The films were deposited at room temperature using potentiostatic mode with a potential of –1.05 V for 30, 45, and 60 minutes. After that, the films were annealed at two different temperatures, 180 ºC and 500 °C, for 45 minutes in N2/H2S atmosphere. Based on X-ray diffraction analysis, the polycrystalline thin film obtained fall into kesterite crystal phase. This type of crystal was obtained when the CZTS was annealed at 500 °C in H2S/N2 atmosphere. The value of optical band gap energy for the CZTS thin film was 2.2 eV with the film thickness about 1.228–6.366 μm. The sample of CZTS with electrodeposition time of 45 minutes and annealing temperature of 500 °C showed the best result and in conformity with absorber layers criteria for solar cells.
