The interest of Indonesian students in agripreneurship is crucial in reducing unemployment rate and maintaining economic growth during covid-19 pandemic. This research aims to determine the impact of the agriculture competency, family background, knowledge&technology competency, and financial capability on students agripreneurial intention. Data collection is conducted using questionnaires, while data analysis process is calculated using Partial Least Squate-Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM). The research sample is all Indonesian students totally 153 respondents. Based on the results of data analysis, agriculture competency, networking competency and family background have a significant effect on agripreneurial intention. While knowledge&technology competency and financial capability have no correlation with student intention in entrepreneurship, especially in the agribusiness sector. Therefore stakeholders should consider those essential aspects in exploring student interest on agripreneurship and then developing strategy to maintain sustainable institutional and policy environment in agriculture sector.
