【 摘 要 】

Salt as a commodity will always be needed by human as well as human need for food. Climatic conditions, less favorable weather changes are a natural factor that inhibits salt production. This study was conducted to analyze changes in salt productivity and salt farmer income due to seasonal changes in Pangenan Sub-district, Cirebon Regency as the largest salt producer in West Java. The variables of the research are seasonal conditions, salt production, salt pond area, salt productivity, selling price and salt farmer income, in 2013 and 2014. Variable data obtained from Fisheries and Maritime Office of Cirebon Regency, and the results of direct interviews with salt farmers then seen relation through statistical calculations using the Pearson Product Moment Correlation method. The result of the calculation shows the correlation value between the change of season and the productivity of 0.368 as r counting, r table of 0.320, and the significance of 0.023, and the value of income correlation with the number of dry months of 0.316 as r counting, r table of 0.271 and significance of 0.027 with significant correlation at 0.05 or 5%. The results show that r counting > r table and significance
