“…Suggesting that, empowering the implementers to select approaches may have fostered a stronger sense of ownership and desire to work harder and achieve more. This notion is supported by previous research where social motivation was found to enhance community participation in community level development activities (Siregar & Sismudjito, 2016). The discretion also may have allowed Strategy 3 teams to be more flexible in their schedules around personal and local events.…”

Rabies can be eliminated if coverage of domestic dog vaccination is sustained above 40% all year-round for five-seven consecutive years. Current approaches usually fail to achieve this required vaccination coverage and an alternative, a community-based continuous mass dog vaccination (CBC-MDV) approach, was designed and piloted in the Mara region of Tanzania. This thesis used mixed, qualitative, quantitative and participatory methods to evaluate the development and delivery of the CBC-MDV approach over two years to generate evidence to inform the optimization of the design prior to its evaluation in a full-scale randomized control trial. Specifically, it investigated the feasibility and fidelity of delivery and potential effectiveness of the CBC-MDV strategies, drivers of innovations in the implementation process, whether and how community engagement can be used to address barriers to participation in mass dog vaccination (MDV) campaigns and what factors will determine the normalization of CBC-MDV as the standard approach for delivering MDV in Tanzania. Qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis, both inductive and deductive. Quantitative data on delivery of CBC-MDV were analyzed descriptively. Regression analysis was used to identify population-related factors that have implications for participation in MDV. Two-proportion Z-tests and Mann-Whitney U test were used to assess whether the community engagement strategies were effective and can address barriers to participation in MDV campaigns. The findings showed that the development process of CBC-MDV was iterative and involved cross-sectoral participation but without the direct involvement of communities. In relation to feasibility, fidelity and potential effectiveness, CBC-MDV was delivered with 69% fidelity and performed better in terms of sustaining high vaccination coverage compared to the centralized approach. Design-, implementer- and context-related factors influenced delivery and effectiveness of the CBC-MDV strategies. We found that the community engagement activities positively influenced factors that underpin participation in MDV campaigns. In relation to integrating and sustaining the new approach in practice, CBC-MDV was well understood, accepted, operationalized with relative ease and positively appraised compared to the centralized approach. We conclude that it was feasible to deliver CBC-MDV in the context of Tanzania, it can be sustained in practice, and barriers to participation in mass dog vaccination can be addressed through community engagement processes. However, community participation in the design, delivery and evaluation of CBC-MDV is needed to foster ownership and sustainability of the intervention.

This study analyzes the challenges and opportunities SMEs face in developing their culinary business in North Sumatra. The qualitative method used in this research involves interviews and observations of 15 participants who are SMEs in the culinary field. The study results show that SMEs in North Sumatra face several challenges in developing their culinary business. The main challenges faced are intense competition in the modern culinary industry, limited resources, and consumer changes. However, this research also found that there are opportunities that SMEs in North Sumatra can exploit. The main opportunities found are the developing tourism potential in this area, technology, and social media that are easy to use as promotional tools, and opportunities to work together and collaborate with other SMEs to develop modern culinary delights in North Sumatra. From this research, it is hoped that SMEs' courage, creativity, and ability to adapt to market changes will succeed in developing their culinary business in North Sumatra.

“…Indonesian people are consumers of corn which is the second staple food after rice. The market demand for corn continues to increase every year, along with the development of the livestock industry, especially chicken farming where 60% of the corn needs are used for animal feed [4] Total raw materials needed for the manufacture of poultry feed, the portion of corn is around 50% [5]. One of the efforts to increase corn productivity is to develop superior varieties that have high yields and are adaptive to certain environmental conditions.…”

Apart from being a staple food, corn has become more important because it is a staple for the animal feed industry. The need for seeds from year to year continues to increase. Eleven promising hybrid maize lines as candidates for new high yielding varieties assembled by Polinela need further testing, including the NUSU test (new, unique, stable, and uniform). The research objective was to test the novelty, uniqueness, uniformity, and stability of the 11 new hybrid maize lines. The treatments were 11 hybrid maize lines, namely lines A, B, C, D, G, H, L, M, P, Q. The treatments were arranged in a Randomized Completely Block Design (RCBD). The variables observed were plant height, harvest age, number of cobs per plant, length of ear, the diameter of ear, number of rows of seeds per ear, weight of 100 seeds, yield of seeds per plant, yield of seeds per hectare. The qualitative character observed was the color of the base of the stem, the color of the pistil (silk) and the color of the male flower (tassel). Uniformity was analyzed by calculating the coefficient of diversity (KK). The results showed that the appearance of the phenotypic characters in each line was very homogeneous with the uniformity level reaching 99.9%.
