Popis: ABSTRACTThis study addresses the crucial need for farmer regeneration to promote sustainable agriculture amidst increasing food demand. Many young individuals opt for non-agricultural careers post-college, necessitating the cultivation of initial agricultural interest. Objectives include understanding factors influencing young individuals’ decision to pursue farming and investigating determinants based on education and location. The findings explore various factors like age, land availability, income, education, and gender impacting farming inclination. Theoretical implications are discussed for effectively sparking agricultural interest. The unique aspect lies in differentiating demography and course choice compared to prior studies. Methodologically, data collection involved structured interviews and questionnaire analysis, employing both quantitative and qualitative approaches. Results indicate a significant influence of demographic and educational factors on farming inclination among youth.
