ABSTRACT
West Java Province is widely recognized as a peanut production center that features various planting patterns due to differences in soil conditions, climate, and farmer鈥檚 practices during cultivation. These environmental variations result in differences in the incomes of peanut farmers. Therefore, this study aims to analyze whether there are income differences among peanut farmers in West Java based on various planting patterns. A total sample of 507 peanut farmers was selected using the proportional cluster sampling method representing the 6 districts. The evaluation process was carried out using a descriptive analysis tool with Excel Pivot Table calculations for revenue and Manova analysis. The results showed that the peanut planting patterns in West Java were found to be as follows: on average, farmers use 0.42 ha of land, usually planting during the rainy season in November, with a planting distance of 25 x 25 cm2. This results in an average peanut production of 1,188 kg/farmer and a productivity rate of 28.39 quintals/ha. By the average of selling price of wet peanut pods at Rp. 5,417/kg, the farmer can earn an average revenue of Rp. 15,357,079/Planting season/Ha. Therefore, farmers can earn an average profit of Rp. 6,394,319/PS/Ha. The results of the Manova test show that the peanut planting pattern has a significant effect on the average of production, selling price, total revenue, and farmer income in West Java. Therefore, it is important to manage peanut farming based on good planting patterns such as proper spacing and scheduling. This can result in superior seeds being planted and increase farmers' income, particularly with a monoculture system.
