A multiple linear regression analysis was conducted using the OLS analysis model with Eviews 9. The results of the study indicate that the harvest area has a negative and insignificant effect on the farmer's exchange rate. Furthermore, the productivity of rice yield has a negative and significant effect on the farmer's exchange rate.
