Abstract
Factors such as operational costs, income, family contributions, and income distribution among salak farmers in Magelang Regency are the focus of this study. Based on an annual production of 597,283 quintals, Magelang Regency is the second largest producer of salak in Indonesia, after Banjarnegara Regency. This study aims to find out the amount of farming costs and farmers' income from salak farming, to find out the contribution of salak farming to household income, and to find out the distribution of household income of salak farmers in Magelang Regency. This study uses a quantitative descriptive approach. Srumbung, Salam, and Kajoran were chosen to be the three sub-districts because of the high salak production in Magelang Regency. Sixty salak farmers were randomly selected to be used as a sample. Data collection was carried out by conducting observations and interviews with salak farmers. The data analysis used was the analysis of the income of salak farmers, and the Gini coefficient. Based on the findings of the research, salak farming is financially feasible with an NPV of Rp89.504.294, an ROI of 8%, a Gross B/C of 2.80, and a Net B/C of 6.85. The results of these ratios show that salak farming is feasible. An annual income of Rp. 52,550,489.00 per hectare is a characteristic of salak farming. The contribution of salak farming income to household income reached 71.88%, showing a high contribution. The level of equality in the number of crops produced is in line with the income of salak farming with a Gini index of 0.33 which indicates high equity, the income of farmer households is at 0.28 which indicates high equity, while the Gini index of farmer household income without salak farming shows low equality with a Gini index of 0.68. Based on this, it shows that salak farming is declared feasible to be cultivated and shows that the level of income obtained by salak farmers in Magelang Regency is followed by income equality.
