Therefore, rice must be produced continuously in sufficient amount to fulfil the need of population food every years.  Paddy field is dominan and the number of production is affected by using producton factors (inputs). The purposes of this research are to examine the factors affecting rice production and to calculate cost, production, revenue, profit, and efficiency.  The research used survey method and located in Lareh Sago Halaban District, Lima Puluh Kota Regency, Sumatera Barat Province. The research was conducted during 6 (six) months from January to June 2022. A total of 42 samples was selected randomly from 135 farmers’ group from 8 villages.
