This study aims to determine the effect of harvest area, agricultural labor, and rainfall on rice production in East Java Province during the period 2001-2021. The analysis used is the Cobb-Douglas production function with multiple regression analysis using the Eviews. The results showed that the harvest area and agricultural labor had a positive effect on rice production. Meanwhile, rainfall has no effect on rice paddy production.
