Abstract

Shallots are a horticultural commodity that is a leading product in Dringu District, Probolinggo Regency. Farmers' income does not only come from shallot farming (on farm), but also from side businesses outside of farming (off farm) and outside of the agricultural sector (non-farm), which can help increase household income. The objective of this study was to analyze the income from shallot farming, its contribution to farmers’ household income, and the factors that influence shallot farming income in Dringu District, Probolinggo Regency. This study used a quantitative, descriptive survey method. The sampling method used stratified random sampling by land area, with a population of 1908 farmers, and a 5% sample was drawn from each stratum, resulting in 95 farmers. The research data were collected through interviews and field observations. The data analysis of farming income and household income contribution was conducted mathematically. The results of the study show that the income from shallot farming is Rp. 71,602,647 every planting season for a land area of 0.6 hectares, which indicates that there is a profit from farming. Shallot farming accounted for 89.9% of farmers' total household income, indicating that their livelihoods mainly depend on this activity. Collectively and partially, the variables of education level, production, land area, price, farming experience, number of dependents, and side jobs significantly influence shallot farming income. This requires regular training and mentoring to enable farmers to maintain their achieved income.
