Data collection method of this research is questionnaire, which was arranged through an exploration study. The sample of this research were housewives as the end consumers of organic food from Yogyakarta, Jakarta and Surabaya-Indonesia. The data was analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The result of this research proves that organic knowledge is a indirect predictor for purchase intention of organic food. Organic knowledge, subjective norm, attitude toward organic food, and purchase behavioral control give positive contribution for purchase intention of organic food.
