Climate change is caused by natural events and human activities, which threaten the agricultural sector and food security, impacting humans and crops. The affected agricultural sector, including the horticulture subsector, experienced a decline in production and farmer income. One of the affected horticultural commodities is cayenne pepper (Capsicum frutescens L.), which is important for fulfilling people's nutrition. This research aims to: (1) Find out the productivity of cayenne pepper in Southeast Sulawesi Province, and (2) Analyze the effect of rainfall on the productivity of cayenne pepper in Southeast Sulawesi Province. The data used in this research is secondary data, obtained from the Southeast Sulawesi Provincial Plantation and Horticulture Service and the Southeast Sulawesi Central Statistics Agency (BPS).
