In recent years, there has been a significant increase in catfish consumption. The average consumer demand reaches 50 to 100 kg with a catfish harvest age of about 2.5 months. Catfish farming has not only increased the income of the community but has also transformed those who previously had no knowledge of how to farm catfish and the potential of utilizing yard land into successful catfish farmers. In connection with this, the author intends to recognize more deeply the potential and opportunities of catfish farming in Air Hitam Village, Kualuh Leidong District. In this research, the author applies the Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) method, which is one of the approaches in Artificial Neural Networks. Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) is a competitive layer training technique with a supervised learning approach, which uses a network structure with a single layer. The use of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is a sophisticated way that can be applied to manage catfish farming business. The results showed that the use of the LVQ method in analyzing catfish farming data can help farmers make more informed decisions, predict business development, and increase yields and profits.
