Abstract: Cidahu Farmers Group is one of the organic rice producers in Tasikmalaya. The increase in fuel prices in November has an impact on production costs, especially because of its relationship with fuel in agricultural management. The study aimed to analyze the differences in prices and income of organic rice farmers in the Cidahu farmer group, Tasikmalaya City, before and after the increase in fuel prices. This study used a quantitative descriptive approach with observation and interview methods. The research sample consisted of seven organic rice farmers in the Cidahu sub-district who are still consistent in running organic rice farming, and the sampling technique used was the saturated sampling method. Data analysis was carried out using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov normality test to determine the distribution of data, and the paired sample t-test to see the difference in treatment before and after the increase in fuel prices. The results of this study indicated a difference in the production costs of organic rice farming before and after the increase in fuel prices, with costs after the increase in fuel prices being greater than before the increase in fuel prices, but there has not been difference in farm income before and after the increase in fuel prices statistically.
