The purpose of the study described in this article is to see the Agrotechnology study program students’ understanding and readiness in implementing MBKM. The research method through descriptive qualitative used questionnaires that were filled out by students on the SPADA Dikti link. The results showed that there were 46% of students did not recognize totally about the policy of MBKM and 54% of the students who recognized the policy of MBKM policy, either few, in general, or overall contents of the MBKM policy. Nevertheless, seen from 54% of students who already recognized the policy, 80% of students were ready to contribute to the MBKM activities although there were still 14% who were not ready and 6% of students who were not interested.
