摘要：This study aims to analyze the women empowerment level and the pattern of women empowerment of beef cattle ranchers in Kampung Ternak, Dasin village, Tambakboyo sub-district, Tuban Regency. There were 15 respondents involved in this study, they consisted of female ranchers and key informants (community leaders and Village Head of Dasin Village, Tambakboyo sub-district, Tuban Regency). The data were analyzed by employing quantitative and qualitative descriptive methods. The women empowerment level was analyzed by utilizing Longwe method (welfare, access, participation, critical awareness of the problems faced, decision making) and it was modified with an index formula developed by the Ministry of Rural Areas. This study applied qualitative descriptive analysis using the cycle of Miles and Huberman. The results of the analysis showed that the welfare indicator index was 0.622 (developing), the access index was 0.741 (developed); participation index was 0.752 (developed), critical awareness index of problems faced was 0.722 (developed) , and decision-making index was 0.743 (developed). The lowest empowerment variable is the welfare index. This is due to the lack of knowledge and creativity in processing livestock products and waste of cattle farming to become valuable things. That condition lowers other sources of income. Thus it can be concluded that the women empowerment level of beef cattle ranchers is fine, but it still needs to be improved by exploring other sources of income, especially processing livestock products into a high-value processed products such as shredded beef, rendang, and others, and processing the waste into compost and/or bio gas.
