Abstract

Currently, Indonesia is experiencing an excess of productive labor (Demographic Bonus), because more than 64 percent of the population is in the age range of 19-64 years. At this time we are also experiencing a farmer crisis, because the interest of the younger generation in entering the agricultural business is still not satisfactory. This condition must not be allowed if we do not want to accept unfavorable impacts in the future, therefore systemic and structured efforts are needed to overcome the crisis in the young generation's interest in becoming farmers. This research aims to: (1) describe students' interest in agricultural entrepreneurship, (2) analyze the factors that influence students' interest, and (3) formulate strategies to increase students' interest in agricultural entrepreneurship. This quantitative descriptive research was carried out in March-July 2023 in several Islamic boarding schools in Pagerageung District and Kadipaten District, involving a sample of 119 people from a population of 238 people, using the Slovin formula with a gallat of 7 percent. Data collection was made through direct interviews using closed questionnaires in accordance with research variables and indicators that have been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis consists of descriptive and multiple linear regression analysis. The research results show that the majority of respondents (56.6%) have sufficient interest in agricultural entrepreneurship. Students' interest is significantly (p<0.01) influenced by external factors (X2) and contextual factors (X3) with influence coefficients of 0.422, 0.640 respectively and constant 0.231 and R2 0.645 so that the model equation Ý = 0.231 + 0.422 X2 + 0.640 X3. The strategy to increase students' interest in agricultural entrepreneurship is by optimally utilizing access to information in an effort to obtain support from the community (social) and the environment.
