Abstract

Southwest Maluku Regency is included in the development area of laga peanut which is located in Werwaru village. This research aims to analyze the production and income of the farmers of the laga peanut. The research was conducted from February to March 2021. The research sample was determined by census so the total sample was 45 people. Research data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively. Qualitative data analysis includes a description of the research location and the characteristics of the respondents. While quantitative data analysis uses income analysis and regression analysis to analyze the factors that affect production and income. The results showed that the production of laga peanut in Werwaru village was quite high, namely 4,854 kg/ha. Variable land area, seeds, and labor significantly affect laga peanut production, while farming experience has no effect. The average income level of farmers is relatively low, amounting to IDR 6,008,227 in one planting season. Factors that have a significant effect on income are labor wages, production quantities, and selling prices, while equipment depreciation does not affect income.
