This research was conducted from April to July 2018. Samples were taken by using the propotionate stratified random sampling method with a total sample of 41 respondents. The analysis technique used the production function of Stochastic Frontier SFA to determine the effect of production costs in the form of planting area, seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, and laborers on revenue of wetland paddy farming and to find out the cost efficiency of wetland paddy farming. The cost of production factors has a significant effect on revenue of wetland paddy farming. The cost of seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides have no effect. Analysis of the cost efficiency of wetland paddy farming showed that farming did not efficient with an average efficiency level of 1.46 because farmers did not manage inputs cost efficiently.]]>
