Abstract
Several impacts due to climate change in the last three years have occurred in pest and disease problems in Indonesia, namely escalation, status improvement, and degradation. Especially in Wonogiri, the Spodoptera litura attack has become more destructive on cabbage and the status improvement rose from controllable into uncontrollable by the farmer. The precipitation in Wonogiri which is risen in 2020 from 2018 because la Nina stimulates the reproduction of Spodoptera litura. The purpose of this study was to analyze the feasibility of a cabbage crop in the dry season during the Spodoptera litura attack. The basic method of research is descriptive-analytical. The results showed that the cost spent for cabbage farming in the Sumber Makmur farmer group, Conto Village, Bulu Kerto District, Wonogiri Regency, with an average land area of 0.26 ha was Rp. 3,505,837; Meanwhile, the revenue was Rp. 10,190,000; And income of Rp 9,236,800; with a profit of IDR 6,684,162. Cabbage farming was feasible to be developed based on the R/C ratio, BEP, capital productivity, and labor productivity. Biopesticides are needed to control Spodoptera litura in an environmentally and economically friendly manner because pest control costs are also a dominant cost component in cabbage farming.
