Salt in Indonesia is generally used to meet the needs of consumption and industry. National salt needs in 2020 reached 4,464,670 tons, while salt production in 2020 was 2,327,078 tons, so there was a gap between the amount of production and the need for 2,137,592 tons. This shortage can be overcome by imports from several countries as much as 3.07 million tons. This study aims to determine the level of risk and identify risks in smallholder salt farming in Kalianget District, Sumenep Regency. The research was conducted in Karanganyar Village, Kertasada Village, and Pinggir Papas Village, Kalianget District, Sumenep Regency. The number of respondents in this study were 40 farmers who were determined purposively. The data were analyzed using the coefficient of variation (CV) calculation method, the Kountur method (2006), and IPA analysis. The results showed that the level of income risk was included in the high category. Sources of risk at the research site are related to the selling price of salt, government policies, marketing channels, quality of human resources, availability of capital, wind and temperature, and rainfall.
