The aim of this research is: (1) studying of time alocation of horticalture farmer which use to main activity (horticulture) and side activity (livestock, fishpond, small shop, or farmhand); (2) analyzing of labor productivity that determined by return to labor. Based on time alocation, income from main activity is comparing with income from combination of activity (main plus side activity). To test the difference between that income (main vs combination of activity), use t-test (paired comparison). Research was took place on June to August 2006. In the Pematangsiontor suburban, land-owner per household generaly is very limited (average 0,15 hectare). The result of the research point out that combination of activity that give biggest income is horticulture plus small shop. However, from the productivity side, horticulture plus fishpond is resulting highest productivity of labor. Although horticulture farmer's family have done main and side activity, 44 percent (about 169 hours per three month) work time still idle yet (underemployment). So, the result of this research can suggest to enhanching the scale of activity, mainly livestock and/or fishpond. Apart from that, local government and other institutions can introduce others activities, such as small and household industry.
