The source of data used in this study was primary data obtained from questionnaires given to farmers who were respondents as many as 45 people. Farmer analysis was used to see the impact of the covid-19 pandemic on seaweed farming and a comparative test (t-test) to see a comparison of seaweed farmers’ income before and after the covid-19 pandemic. Research shows that the covid-19 pandemic has had a negative impact on seaweed farming activities by decreasing the income obtained by farmers. The t-test results showed a difference in seaweed farming income before and after the covid-19 pandemic, which was IDR 22,186,309. Before the covid-19 pandemic, farmers were able to earn an income of IDR 92,217,465, but after the covid-19 pandemic farmers’ income decreased and they were only able to earn an income of IDR 70,031,156. One of the factors that caused this was the high price of inputs after the covid-19 pandemic. ## Keywords - Agriculture - Pandemic - Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) - Socioeconomics - Test (biology) - Geography - Agricultural science - Agricultural economics - Economics - Biology - Medicine - Ecology - Archaeology - Disease - Infectious disease (medical specialty) - Pathology --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
