Abstract

The research aimed to investigate the communication channel and constraint of beef cattle farmers on adoption of artificial insemination technique in ex-transmigrant area, Dharmasraya Regency, West Sumatera. The survey method was used that supported by field observation. The population was the farmers in Dharmasraya Regency, which determined sixty-four farmer respondents from five farmers’ groups representing five areas (Karya Tama, Koto Agung, Sungai Atang, Padang Bintungan, and Sungai Kalang). The data analysed with quantitative descriptive that showed in percentages and scores through simple formulas and Lickert Scales. The result showed that the communication channel used by beef cattle farmers to adopt artificial insemination technique was the personal communication. It interpreted that the farmer prefers to communicate with inseminators officers directly. No one of the respondents used mass media as a communication channel. On the other hand, the significant constraint factor during adoption of artificial insemination was cultural factors. It showed by lack of trust by farmers in the Extention officers and in the success of artificial insemination.
