Good farming must be supported by farmers' income by looking at the ratio of income to farming costs incurred. This research aims to analyze the comparative risk of production, income, and feasibility of rainfed lowland rice farming. The research was conducted in Maros Regency, namely Minasa Baji Village, Bantimurung District, and Bonto Cabu Village, Lau District.
