Waqf is an economic instrument in Islam. Indonseia which in fact has a
majority Muslim population is certainly a country that has high potential to
develop waqf. Agricultural waqf is one of the productive waqf whose role can be a
supporter of the economy and food security. About 32% of Indonesia's population
works in agriculture. However, the number and development of waqf, especially
agricultural waqf has not big yet. Therefore, it is necessary to further examine
how the level of understanding of society related to waqf, especially agricultural
waqf and what are the factors that affect it. This research aims to find out the
level of understanding of muhammadiyah bantul resident in agricultural waqf
with muzara'ah agreement and determining factors. The data source was obtained
by providing questionnaires to Muhammadiyah residents who have NBM
(Muhammadiyah standard number) in Bantul Regency with a sample 100
respondents based on random sampling and archival documents from the relevant
institutions. This study uses quantitative methods with multiple linear regression
analysis. The independent variables used are agriculture knowledge, knowledge
about contracts in Islam (Muzaa'ah contract), the role of waqf institutions and
access to information. Similarly, the dependent variable used is the understanding
of waqf. The results of this study found that independent variables that have a
positive and significant effect on dependent variables is knowledge about
contracts in Islam (Muzaa'ah contract). While for independent variable
agriculture knowledge, the role of waqf institutions and access to information
have a positive but insignificant effect on dependent variables
