Cirebon is the largest producer of rakyat (peasant-produced) salt in Indonesia. Data from the Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries shows that Cirebon Regency, West Java, recorded a salt production of 435,400 tons in 2015. This achievement was the highest compared to other national salt production centers. In second place was Sampang Regency, Madura, with a production of around 400,000 tons, and in third place was Pati Regency, Central Java, with a salt production of 381,700 tons. In 2015, national salt production reached 2.9 million tons, a 16.5 percent increase from the previous year.
Domestic salt production from 2010-2015 was quite fluctuating. In 2011, salt production increased by more than 52 percent to 2.47 million tons, but the following year it plummeted by almost 53 percent to 1.16 million tons. Uncertain weather patterns and high rainfall have made domestic salt production quite volatile.
