Abstract: Sustainable agriculture becomes crucial issue in economic development and cocoa production is one of the important pillars. The research deals with determinants of cocoa production using Path Analysis. The results show that, first, the larger cultivated land area with farm equipment, the much higher increase in cocoa productions of smallholders will be. Therefore, we may argue that the variable Cultivated Land Area with Farm Equipment (X22) is the most important variable to be considered in increasing production. Second, the more difficult access to public health center is, the less cocoa production of smallholders will gain. This implies that providing public health center closer to the smallholder residence could be considered to encourage cocoa production as a smallholders income source.
