Considering the potential of corn, Bank Indonesia in cooperation with the Government of Grobogan Regency creates the development program of corn cluster. The selected area as the object is Gapoktan Sido Murni in Tambakselo Village. However, there is an area with the same potential that does not have a cluster development program, that is Gapoktan Sido Manunggal in Dokoro Village, Therefore this research aims to know and compare the income, profit and feasibility of corn farming both. The number of respondents of 20 farmers in each village, determination by non random sampling technique. The data obtained were analyzed descriptively. Corn farming was analyzed by cost analysis, income, profit, R / C, land productivity, labor productivity, and capital productivity.
