The andesitiv volcanic eruptions produce material with a variety of minerals, so that the soil formed is classified as fertile. Supported by high rainfall around the volcano area is an agricultural area with high productivity. The Kelud volcanic eruption in February 2014 produced a pyroclastic fall material which when exposed to rainwater will become hard. This has an impact on the quality of agricultural land and causes some landowners to change their livelihoods. The aim of this study was to determine the factors that influence the farmers to choose decision their livelihood after the 2014 eruption.
