Abstract

Well-being is a way of life and social, material, and spiritual livelihood that encompasses a sense of security, morality, and inner peace, enabling every citizen to strive to meet their physical, spiritual, and social needs as best as possible for themselves, their households, and society. This study aims to analyze the level of well-being among lime-farming households in Landono Subdistrict, South Konawe Regency. This study was conducted using a survey method involving 33 lime farmers selected through purposive sampling. Data analysis was performed by calculating household income, household expenditures (food and non-food), and measuring the level of well-being using the Farmer Well-Being Ratio (RKP) indicator. The results show that the average total household income of lime farmers is Rp42,498,186.37 per year, derived from lime farming (77.61%), vegetable farming (15.29%), and farm labor (7.09%). Meanwhile, the average total household expenditure for these farmers is Rp9,785,416.66 per year, consisting of Rp6,082,424.24 for food and Rp3,702,992.42 for non-food items. The calculation of the Farmer Welfare Ratio (RKP) yielded a value of 4.34. Since the RKP value is greater than one (4.34 > 1), it can be concluded that farmer households in Landono Regency are considered to be well-off. This indicates that the income received by farmers is sufficient to meet their families’ needs, both for food and non-food items
