This study employs a quantitative by using multiple linear regression analysis. The results show that simultaneously, the variables of land area, labor, and production costs have a significant effect on farmers’ income. Partially, only the land area variable has a significant effect on income, with a significance value of 0.007. Meanwhile, labor and production costs do not have a significant partial effect, with significance values of 0.526 and 0.142, respectively. The coefficient of determination (R²) is 0.941, indicates that 94.1% of the variation in farmers’ income can be explained by the three independent variables in the model, while the remaining 5.9% explained by other factors outside the model.
