The purpose of this study is to look at the relationship between religiosity and the intention to buy religiously labeled products among Muslim customers in Indonesia. In Indonesia, a total of 241 questionnaires were delivered to respondents. PLS-SEM (Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling) is a statistical tool for analyzing complex correlations between observable and latent variables. According to the results of this study, intrinsic-extrinsic religiosity has a substantial direct effect on Muslim perceived value and Muslim relationships, but not on purchase intention. However, the indirect impacts of intrinsic-extrinsic religiosity on purchase intention are strong via Muslim perceived value and Muslim relationships. In particular, intrinsic-extrinsic religion has a greater indirect effect on purchase intention via Muslim perceived value than via Muslim relationships. These findings imply that Muslim perceived value and Muslim friendship serve as a bridge between intrinsic-extrinsic religiosity and purchase intention. This conclusion adds to the research contribution to an issue that is still rarely mentioned in investigating the relationship between religious relationships and Indonesian Muslim consumers' inclination to purchase Islamic-labelled FMCG products. This report will help to stress the significance of the issue and its ramifications for business decisions.

The pricing of the treatment at the “Indah Beauty” beauty salon in Batuaji Village, Ringinrejo District, Kediri Regency, had a bigger market price difference, which made consumers hesitant to get the treatment again and served as the impetus for this study. This study intends to ascertain how much price has an impact on customer satisfaction at the Indah Beauty Beauty Outlet in Batuaji Village, Kediri Regency, as well as how much service quality has an impact on customer satisfaction there. The sample in this research was consumers of the Indah Beauty “beauty outlet” in Batuaji Village, Kediri Regency. The method used to take samples was using a simple random sampling method using the Slovin formula to obtain a sample of 86 people. This research uses a quantitative approach, while the research technique uses the causality method. Analysis in the study used multiple linear regression analysis. The calculation results of this research using the SPSS version 23 program show that: 1) price partially has no influence on consumer satisfaction 2) service quality partially has an influence on customer satisfaction 3) price (X1) and service quality (X2) simultaneously influence consumer satisfaction. Based on this research, it can be concluded that companies should consider price and maintain the quality of the services provided because this greatly influences consumer satisfaction.

The study examined the socio-determinants of off-farm income among small-holder rice farmers in Anambra State. Specifically, it described socio-economic characteristics, off-farm income generating activities, and level of participation in various off-farm income generating activities in the study area. Multistage sampling procedure involving purposive and random sampling methods were used to select two agricultural zones, four LGAs, eight communities, thirty smallholder rice farmers and two hundred and forty (240) respondents for the study. Primary data were collected by means of structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics (means, frequency distribution, percentages, tables and mean ranking) and Simpson participation index. Findings showed that majority of the farmers are within the age limit of 41-50 years and majority had no access to credit due to bottleneck activities and collateral requirements in obtaining the loan from most financial institution. Result on off-farm income generating activities showed that many of the smallholder rice farmers are into trading (54.2%), handcraft (52.5%), repair (50.8%) and many others that help them to generate extra income in the study area. Result of level of off farm participation by smallholder rice farmers revealed that moderate level of off-farm income participation had a high percentage of 52.5% with mean value of 0.49. Thus, smallholder rice farmers participated in off-farm income generation activities moderately. Government should of necessity address the issue of fuel subsidy removal which has a gross effect on the movement of farmers and insufficient extension workers in the State should be addressed by relevant stake holders were recommended.

One of the most significant issues facing decision-makers who are committed to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals as outlined in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is climate change. The effects of climate change are already being seen, including rising temperatures, altered precipitation patterns, changes in ocean currents, melting of ice sheets, rising sea levels, and an increase in the frequency and severity of sea level events. Other effects include melting permafrost, retreating glaciers and ice sheets, an increase in fire-friendly weather, and an increase in the frequency and severity of extreme weather events. This has caused the climate change, including an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide, along with other climate gasses. Increased frequency and severity of extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, cyclones, and heavy rain, which may affect water quantity and quality, are among them. The primary releases of hazardous chemicals like heavy elements have increased, and this has had an impact on the climate. Keywords: Heavy metals; climate change, Air pollution, water pollution, soil pollution, sediment pollution, measure control pollution.

This has caused the climate change, including an increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide, along with other climate gasses. Increased frequency and severity of extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, cyclones, and heavy rain, which may affect water quantity and quality, are among them. The primary releases of hazardous chemicals like heavy elements have increased, and this has had an impact on the climate.

Gender is a concept that describes how society determines what roles men and women perform in society. Gender refers to the socio-culturally determined disparities between feminine and masculine. Gender discrimination is one of the most prevalent educational and social challenges in the present era. Religion, language, culture, tradition, education, the economy, and every other aspect of human existence all have an impact on it. Textbooks are one of the most important sources of information. Through its usage, children are pushed to think critically and imaginatively. Textbooks are crucial in promoting gender equality. The purpose of this research is to study gender discrimination in history textbooks at the elementary level. The current study used a documentary research method with a content analysis technique, which was followed by a qualitative approach. It was found that gender discrimination in text, and images was noticed. Male characters frequently appear in textbooks. Male characters are over-represented in textbooks. The presence of females in textbooks has been acknowledged to a lesser extent and gender is depicted unequally in textbooks. Keywords: Gender representation, History textbook, Element Level, Werst Bengal.
