This research used a survey approach with cross-sectional data, with a questionnaire research instrument. Data were analyzed with income analysis and income distribution analysis by looking for the Gini Index value and depicted by the Lorentz curve. The results showed that the level of income gap was quite high with the Gini Index number reaching 0.40 in the management of cassava agribusiness. It is recommended to strengthen cultural values through increasing the capacity of farmers’ human resources in social empathy.
