Research methodology: The population consisted of 473 farmers from TerusanNunyai, Central Lampung regency. Interviews, observation, documentation, and questionnaires were all used to collect data. Results: The performance of cassava farming which is measured based on the income analysis, the average income value is Rp. 7.351.369,66 with an R/C ratio of 1,46. Then, production factors for NPK-Phonska, TSP/SP-36, KCL, manure, labor, pesticide, and land are not economically efficient in cassava farming, while seed production factors are not economically efficient yet. Income and production in cassava farming have a high risk. Limitations: There is unavoidable transaction cost; therefore, it is necessary to involve transaction costs to get the maximum profit to reach economic efficiency.
