The objectives of this study were to determine 1) the risks of tomato farming during the rainy season in Aimoli Village, Alor Barat Laut District, 2) the comparison of tomato production during the rainy season in Aimoli Village, Alor Barat Laut District, and 3) the comparison of tomato income during the rainy season in Aimoli Village, Alor Barat Laut District. The research was conducted in September 2024 with a sample size of 58 tomato farmers. The results showed that: 1) The risks faced by tomato farmers in Aimoli Village were income risk, revenue risk, and production risk. The amount of income and revenue earned by tomato farmers in the dry season and rainy season differs due to differences in selling prices and production volumes. 2) In the dry season, tomato production in Aimoli Village reached 107 kg, while tomato production in the rainy season reached 45 kg. 3) The difference in tomato production between the dry season and rainy season causes a difference in the income levels of tomato farmers in Aimoli Village.

The study concludes that tomato farmers in Aimoli Village face income, revenue, and production risks, with variations in income and revenue between dry and rainy seasons due to differing selling prices and production volumes.Tomato production is significantly lower during the rainy season (45 kg) compared to the dry season (107 kg), leading to income disparities among farmers.These findings highlight the challenges faced by tomato farmers in adapting to seasonal changes and the need for strategies to mitigate production and income risks.

Penelitian lebih lanjut perlu dilakukan untuk mengkaji efektivitas berbagai strategi mitigasi risiko yang dapat diterapkan oleh petani tomat di Desa Aimoli, seperti penggunaan varietas tomat yang lebih tahan terhadap kondisi hujan dan pengembangan sistem drainase yang lebih baik. Selain itu, studi komparatif dapat dilakukan dengan daerah lain yang memiliki karakteristik agroklimat serupa untuk mengidentifikasi praktik-praktik terbaik dalam budidaya tomat di musim hujan. Penelitian juga dapat difokuskan pada analisis rantai nilai tomat, termasuk peran perantara dan dampaknya terhadap pendapatan petani, serta potensi pengembangan model bisnis yang lebih menguntungkan bagi petani. Terakhir, penting untuk meneliti lebih lanjut mengenai dampak perubahan iklim terhadap produksi tomat di wilayah tersebut dan mengembangkan strategi adaptasi jangka panjang yang berkelanjutan, termasuk penggunaan teknologi pertanian presisi dan praktik-praktik pertanian konservasi.
