This study aims to examine the relationship between entrepreneurial characteristics and the performance of shallots farming in Selopamioro Village, Imogiri District, Bantul Regency. Using a sample of 63 farmers selected through multistage random sampling, the research analyzed five entrepreneurial characteristics: leadership, self-confidence, risk-taking, hard work, and innovativeness. Data were collected through questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive analysis and the Spearman rank correlation test. The findings revealed that leadership and innovativeness had significant positive correlations with both sales volume and profit, while risk-taking was significantly correlated with profit. These results indicate that enhancing entrepreneurial characteristics can lead to improved farming performance. The study recommends implementing training programs, improving access to resources, developing supportive policies, strengthening extension services, and promoting collaboration among farmers to enhance their entrepreneurial capabilities and achieve better farming outcomes.
