The study used purposive sampling, selecting 10 clove farmers from both varieties. The analytical methods included examining production costs, assessing revenue, analyzing income, evaluating feasibility, and conducting profit analysis and t-test analysis: (1) production costs for Zanzibar variety clove farms were Rp. 1,103,373, while total costs for Sikotok clove farms were Rp. 1,026,341. Revenue from Zanzibar variety clove farms was Rp. 6,270,000, with a production of 66 kg per year.

(3) The R/C ratio for Zanzibar variety was 5.6, indicating that income exceeds total costs (R/C ratio > 1). The R/C ratio for Sikotok variety was 4.2, also indicating that farming both varieties is feasible. The B/C ratio for Zanzibar clove farming is 5.6, showing that revenue exceeds total costs (B/C ratio > 1). Similarly, the B/C ratio for Sikotok clove farming is 4.6, confirming it also qualifies as B/C ratio > 1.
