Method of structural equation modeling (SEM) is suitable to use to solve complex problems, run by agribusiness and science in general business in particular. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a combination of factor analysis, analisais signs, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. Structural equation modeling (SEM) has different characteristics as ordinary regression. Regression usually indicate a causal relationship between observed variables (observed variables), and the structural equations modeling (SEM), also possible causality between unobserved variables (unobserved variables) or tongs are often called hidden variables. Measurement of latent variables in multiple regression error measurement (measurement errors) that affect the measurement bias in an objective point and size variance.
