Abstract
Agriculture in Bali has profound importance, namely as a natural tourist attraction and is one of the sectors with the most workers absorb as well the largest contributor to regional income for Bali Province. Currently, the agriculture sector in Bali is experiencing the problem of decreasing the workforce due to the reluctance of future generations to continue farming inherited from their families. The purpose of this paper is to identify the factors causing the reluctance of future generations to continue family farming and to study the causality of these factors to the reluctance for continuing family farming. This study uses a variance-based structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). Internal and external motivation to continue family farming as well the perception of agricultural works are the exogenous variables, and the reluctance to continue family farming is the endogenous variable on the model. The data in this study obtained from interviewing 115 respondents in the Jembrana Regency of Bali. The study’s result justifies that internal factors, external factors, and perceptions of agricultural work influenced the reluctance to continue family farming.

Summary
BPS atau Badan Pusat Statistik Indonesia (2020) memperhitungkan penduduk Indonesia pada tahun 2019 sejumlah 268,10 juta jiwa dengan laju pertumbuhan penduduk per tahun sebesar 1,15 persen. Total penduduk Indonesia pada tahun 2019 yang berusia 15 tahun ke atas mencapai 197,91 juta jiwa dengan penduduk pada kelompok usia ini terkategorikan angkatan kerja dan bukan angkatan kerja masing-masing sejumlah 133,56 juta dan 64,35 juta jiwa, sehingga persentase angkatan kerja terhadap jumlah penduduk mencapai 49.82 persen. 2017 2019 yang melebihi penurunan pada level provinsi sebesar 1,69 persen jumlah tenaga kerja di sektor pertanian di Bali tercatat 466.307 jiwa pada tahun 2017 dan 458.430 jiwa pada tahun 2019 (BPS Provinsi Bali, 2020), merupakan ancaman serius terhadap kedaulatan pangan. Mencermati fakta empiris tentang menurunnya jumlah tenaga kerja di sektor pertanian serta dampaknya kepada kedaulatan pangan daerah, tulisan ini bertujuan mengelaborasi determinan keengganan generasi muda meneruskan usaha tani keluarga di Kabupaten Jembrana serta memeriksa kausalitas faktor internal dan eksternal generasi muda dengan persepsi generasi muda tentang pekerjaan petani sebagai determinan dari keengganan generasi muda meneruskan usaha tani keluarga. Sebuah model persamaan struktural (structural equation modeling/SEM) dibangun untuk mengkaji kausalitas ini dan SmartPLS dari Ringle et al (2015) digunakan untuk menganalisis data
