PT Tigaraksa Satria branch of Semarang, is a company which runs the digital Al Qur’an product as one of its type of business’s engagement. One of the digital Al Qur’an to be sold is Mushaf Grand Maqomat. PT Tigaraksa Satria also produces Mushaf for Woman and Mushaf Maqomat for Kids. Among these three Mushaf, Mushaf Grand Maqomat-has the less selling. This study is expected to measure and analyzing the effect of interest, religious stimuli, and consumers’ trust on the decision to purchase digital Al Qur’an. It is suspected that variable of religious stimuli has the most dominant effect to the consumers. The population in this study are the current consumers of digital Al Qur’an on PT Tigaraksa Satria. The result of this study indicates that variable of interest has significant effect on the purchasing’s decision. This is resulted on p-value (sig) that is 0.001 under 0.05, the variable of stimuli has significant effect on purchasing decision indicated by 0.755 as the p-value (sig) above 0.05. Whilst, the most dominant variable that influences buyers in purchasing Al Qur’an is the religious stimuli, accordingly to the researcher’s hypothesis that states religious stimuli is the most dominant variable.

Consumer behavior has become a consumer habit in shopping. This affects the pattern of product purchasing decision. The purpose of the study was to find out whether the brand could be a driver of buying Make Over cosmetics product in the city of Blitar. The variables used are brands and purchasing decisions with samples of seller and buyers of Make Over cosmetic product in the city of Blitar. The resut of the study found that cosmetics brands Make Over became the driving force for purchasing cosmetic products in the city of Blitar.

Nitrate-nitrogen (N) losses in surface drainage and runoff water from ornamental plant production areas can be considerable. In N-limited watersheds, discharge of N from production areas can have negative impacts on nontarget aquatic systems. This study monitored nitrate-N concentrations in production area drainage water originating from a foliage plant production area. Concentrations in drainage water were monitored during the transition from 100% reliance on fertigation using urea and nitrate-based soluble formulations (SF) to a nitrate-based controlled-release formulation (CRF). During the SF use period, nitrate-N concentrations ranged from 0.5 to 322.0 mg·L−1 with a median concentration of 31.2 mg·L−1. Conversely, nitrate-N concentrations during the controlled-release fertilization program ranged from 0 to 147.9 mg·L−1 with a median concentration of 0.9 mg·L−1. This project demonstrates that nitrate-N concentrations in drainage water during the CRF program were reduced by 94% to 97% at the 10th through 95th percentiles relative to the SF fertilization program. Nitrate-N concentrations in drainage water from foliage plant production areas can be reduced by using CRF fertilizer formulations relative to SF formulations/fertigation. Similar results should be expected for other similar containerized crops. Managers located within N-limited watersheds facing N water quality regulations should consider the use of CRF fertilizer formulations as a potential tool (in addition to appropriate application rates and irrigation management) for reducing production impacts on water quality.
