                Figure 6. Comparison of Sea Salt Yields in Cirebon and Indramayu

                2.   Multiple Linear Regression Analysis
                     The multiple linear regression analysis results (Table 5) show
                that about 68% of salt production in Cirebon is determined by rainfall
                (X ) and rainy days (X ) during the dry season, and other variables
                 1               2
                determine the remaining 32%. The significance value of f is 0,0102
                (below the alpha value of 0,05), meaning that the combination
                of variations in rainfall and the number of rainy days significantly
                determines the gain of salt production.
