There are three criterias in farmer’s behavior : risk lover, risk neutral, and risk averter. Thirty-nine farmers was selected by using simple randomsampling. The utility function was employed to determine farmer’s behaviour. In this research, utility unction with Bernoulli and Neuman -Morgerstern technique was used. This specifcation wasmodifed with neutral probability (50:50). Estimation on this function was done by using uncertaintyequivalent (CE) through quadratic estimation. The result showed that arround 33 farmers (84.62%)are risk neutral. The risk averter are 5 farmers (11.52%) and one farmer (2.56%) is risk lover.
