Abstract: The family farming system has been tending to fade by the massive paddy-farming land conversion and it needs the alternative model of rice-field management. Therefore, the research aims to initiate the suitable model of farmer institution to optimize staple food availability. The main predictors was the farmer's perception toward farming practice while the within variables are farming unwillingness and land selling tendency. The population is the children of farmer who owned the farming land. Data collection was conducted during June-September 2017 in West Java from one hundred accidental sampling. In the light of multiple regression analysis, the "dual system" management model in which it is a combination between the family and state farming system is mostly the suitable model for the young farmer who has a tendency to leave the paddy-farming practice and has a strong inclination to sell the farming land.
