The scale of urban farming hydroponic vegetable was a small and individual business. Hydroponic cultivation technology has been carried out in accordance with the theory of hydroponic cultivation with the DFT (Deep Flow Technique) system. Amount of labor was 9.69 HOK in one production cycle. The total cost of production per cycle was Rp 9.541.801, total production was 266,88 kg, gross income was Rp 11.958.363, net income was Rp 2.416.562. RCR was 1,25, means that each Rp 1,00 of the costs incurred for urban farming hydroponic vegetables will get a profit of Rp 0,25, then hydroponic farming profitable.
