Abstract

The low income as a farmer in developing country drives to change the profession and to be a worker in the Crispy snack home industry. This research aims to identify and analyze the factors influencing laborer migration from the agricultural profession to non-agricultural-based home industry due to countryside industrialization. This study used primary data collected with survey data from 69 agricultural workers who migrate to work in Crispy snack home industry at the same Village. Multiple linear regression (MLR) model were applied for results analysis. MLR variables consisted of age, level of education, land ownership, income per capita status, mobility, number of the respondent's family, respondent's debt liability, and government policy regarding assistance. The examined results indicated that all variables simultaneously affected laborer migration, while partially, on each parameter determinated the vary result. The level of education and mobility variables had no significant effect on the laborer migration. Laborer migration from the agricultural profession into the home industry, particularly among 41 - 50 years with minimal farm debt, accounted for 2 - 3 respondents. Additionally findings of this study indicated that respondents’ income per capita increased by transitioning to the home industry and income was not based upon previous experience, but the type of work being done. Neither was environmental or social degradation found to be of significant influence on the respondents’ perceptions regarding the type of work chosen. We conclude that the farmer who migrate to be a Crispy Snack home industry worker was limited to young age due to meet affordibility for life need. Hence, home industry owners should use local raw or agriculture-based materials in productions allowing for dual prosperity in both sectors.
