ABSTRACT
An experiment was conducted to evaluate the success rate of artificial insemination in West Sumatera. The number of cows used 162 cows of four artificial insemination centre with four different parity from zero parity to parity 5th parity and frozen semen was used of four different bull. Feed similarly kept in four AI centre and data was analyzed by ANOVA of factorial of RBD. Result of this research showed that interaction between time of insemination, breed and parity were no significant different (P>0.05) on conception rate. On the contrary, there were significant different (P<0.05) on conception rate by time of insemination. The highest conception rate founded at the end of estrus 13 – 18 h (68.91 %). Local cow (71.82), third parity (59.00 %). It was concluded that the effects, time of insemination might be the important factor to get the highest conception rate of the cows. So it may be suggested that to get highest of conception rate, should inseminated the cows at the end of estrus 13 – 18 h in parity -3 and local cows was higher conception rate than the crossbred cows.

ABSTRACT
This study is the multicases study (survey and case study) that aimed to identify the model of partnership in plantation in Jambi province. Analysis was performed on a variety of partnership executed, rules, interactions, benefits, constraints and problems in each partnership. It also conducted an analysis of the various factors supporting the formulation of effective partnerships especially in plantation covering institutional role of farmers and government policy on partnerships. There are three models of partnership that exists in the plantations in Jambi province that includes: PIR-Trans partnership, the KKPA partnership and the PIR Plantation Revitalization partnership. PIR Trans partnership is built based on the Inpres no. 1/1986 which explains that the PIR project is PIR project associated with transmigration program. While KPPA partnership model is based on a joint decision of the Minister of Agriculture and Minister of Cooperatives and Small Business Development No.73/Kpts/KB.510/2/1998 and No. 01/SKB/M/11/98. In partnership run through the provision of financing facilities provided by the government in the form of loans to cooperatives in this primary cooperatives to their members. While Plantation Revitalization partnership model builds upon the agricultural policy in 2006, and Minister of Finance policy No. 117/2006. Partnership associated with plantation revitalization program, as well as KKPA model where land is also from the community by utilizing the credit facility. The third model is formal partnership where the rules in run partnership set out in a written contract in the form of a cooperative agreement. Generally, partnership has benefited the majority of farmers that include increased income, price certainty and transfer of technology. At an analysis of the institution, especially for farmer groups showed yet the role of institutional effectiveness of partnerships in promoting farmers have played. It is not in spite of the limited assistance and guidance provided by the government against the existing farmers' institutions. Government programs so far have not been able to encourage the development of the plantation business partnership program.

ABSTRACT
Land and forest damage occurred in Nagari Paninggahan causes critical land area of 2.700 Ha. In order to repair the damage to forests and land and increase productivity and restore its function as protection for Watershed (DAS) Batur lake, one of the activities is Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM). VCM project is an investment of financial resources, social, physical and material. As an investment there is always a benefit or advantage that is expected either directly or indirectly. So the aim of this research is to analyze the economic feasibility of the critical land management in Jorong Subarang Kenagarian Paninggahan, Sijunjung Sirih subdistrict, Solok District. The research method is descriptive method which uses the case study. From 2010-2015, the area of 31,65 ha has spent Rp 1.371.923.020. The economic calculation of VCM project indicated from the results of the economic analysis of VCM that is 31.65 hectares with a 5-year analysis period at the interest rate of 12%, the B / C Ratio of 1,02, with NPW of Rp 18.533.726 and EIRR of 12,05%. It is due to the calculation of the economic benefits of externalities are not fully assessed quantitatively. A sensitivity analysis shows that the VCM project is sensitive to some effects of the changes, such as the effect of the increase of dollar exchange rate, the rise of inflation and the high cost of maintenance of plants in areas of critical land. VCM project sensitivity level is 2%. Although it is sensitive to the effects of changes, VCM Project has a positive impact on the community and environment as (1) reduce the critical land, so as to prevent the occurrence of fires, the air absorption of CO2 impact on the environment and add DTA, (2) provides a training for using herbicides and (3) Increase employment opportunities. The results of this research could be used as information for farmers on the improvement of degraded land and for the government as a basis for policy making and extension for VCM project development in the local area.
