Abstract: This study aims to analyse the production, income differences and farming risks of cayenne pepper and large chilli in East Lombok Regency. The research used descriptive quantitative methods and data collection using survey techniques. The research location was determined by multistage purposive sampling based on the altitude of the place and the highest production of cayenne pepper and large chilli. Respondent farmers were determined as many as 60 people selected by quota sampling. Selection of respondents using random sampling method. Production and farm income were analysed descriptively quantitatively. Risk measurement uses variance, standard deviation and coefficient of variation. Differences in income and risk of cayenne pepper and large chilli farming were analysed statistically with the Z test. The average production of cayenne pepper in East Lombok Regency was found to be 3,962 kg/ha and 6,044 kg/ha respectively in the rainy season and dry season. While the average production of large chilli in the rainy season and dry season was 3,297 kg/ha and 4,546 kg/ha. The average income of cayenne pepper farming is in the rainy season of Rp. 106 million/ha and the dry season of Rp. 11 million/ha is high and significantly different compared to the income of large chilli farming in the rainy season of Rp. 30 million/ha and the dry season of Rp. 15 million/ha. Production risk in cayenne pepper and large chilli farms is in the low category with a coefficient of variation (CVq) smaller than 0.50; however, the risk of cayenne pepper production is lower (CVq =0.33) than the risk of large chilli production and significantly different from the risk of large chilli production (CVq=0.40). While at price risk, cayenne pepper farming is at high risk (CVp = 0.54), while in large chillies the risk is lower (CVp = 0.39) and significantly different. The benefits of the research are (1) Farmers, as a material consideration in dealing with the risks in the cayenne pepper and large chilli farms carried out. (2) Government and related agencies, as information material for policy making related to risk issues in cayenne pepper and large chilli farms. (3) Other researchers, as a material consideration and information for similar research.
