Shallots are one of the horticultural commodities that are quite strategic and have high economic value. The level of public consumption of shallots in Indonesia continues to increase. The abundant production of shallots in Brebes causes shallot prices to fluctuate. The plentiful harvests also affect the decline in shallot prices in Brebes. This study aims to analyze the Farming Business Profit and Farming Efficiency of Shallots in the Sidomakmur Farmers Group, Sidamulya Village, Wanasari Subdistrict, Brebes Regency, Central Java. The research method used is Descriptive Quantitative. In one planting season, the Sidomakmur farmers group incurred a total cost of IDR 130,000,000 and obtained an income of IDR 227,900,000. Therefore, in one planting season, the Sidomakmur farmers group made a profit of IDR 97,900,000, and based on the calculation using the formula NPMx/Px = 1, a farming efficiency of 0.82 or 82% was obtained, which means the Sidomakmur farmers group is less efficient in running their farming business as it is still below 1. It is hoped that the Sidomakmur farmers group can maximize the existing potential so that the shallot farming business can become efficient. |
