Field schools becomes knowledge transfer centers for agricultural educators to pass on skills to farmers. In Sijunjung Regency there are four sub-districts that conduct the highest number of field schools which are the focus of research to analyze the factors that influence the competency of agricultural instructors in implementing field schools. This research uses a survey to collect data from agricultural instructors who have implemented field schools since 2016, with a sample of 40 people who have fulfilled the requirements for SEM Partial Least Square (SEM-PLS) analysis using the SmartPls 4.0 program.
