This study aims to analyze the financial feasibility of using a hybrid-based fish drying system as an innovative solution to optimize the drying process. The hybrid approach integrates traditional and modern technologies that can improve time efficiency, product quality, and reduce operational costs. The research method includes technical aspect evaluation, cost and benefit analysis, and measurement of economic impact on business actors. The results of the study indicate that this system has significant potential in improving the efficiency and profitability of small and medium enterprises in the salted fish processing sector, with a profitable cost benefit ratio. These findings are expected to be the basis for the wider application of hybrid technology in the fish processing industry, while supporting the development of the local economy. The dryer can prevent dust, dirt, and flies from sticking to fish. Drying fish using a solar dryer can speed up the drying time by up to 4 hours compared to traditional drying (Hantoro, et al., 2018). requires a high initial investment for the community. This study is to help the community consider investing in fish drying equipment in terms of financial feasibility with the criteria of Break Even Point (BEP), Net Present Value (NPV), Payback Period (PP), and Incremental Rate of Return (IRR). The data collection method for this study is a literature study and field observation, to determine the design of the fish drying equipment, drying time, and the percentage of water content reduction in fish, by collecting information on investment costs, production costs, variable costs, fixed costs, labor costs. The sample in this study were Small and Medium Enterprises and those responsible for salted fish production. From the results of the calculation of the breakeven value/Break Event Point quantity (Q) and price (P), the results were 647.83 kg or Rp36,677,792. The use of a fish drying system with a hybrid method is feasible to implement because the NPV is more than 0. In addition, the B/C ratio is more than 1, the PP result is one year and four months and the IRR obtained is 6%, meaning that the decision on the financial feasibility analysis in using a salted fish drying system with a hybrid method is feasible to be implemented to increase the efficiency of salted fish production in the Brondong Paciran Lamongan area. keywords a;b;c;d Financial Feasibility, Drying equipment system, Production efficiency, Hybrid Method publication_date 2025/06/20 2025/06/15 pdf_url https://insyma.org/proceedings/files/articles/Titin_titin.pdf abstract_html_url https://insyma.org/proceedings/items/show/ https://insyma.org/proceedings/items/show/358 firstpage 279 lastpage 285 issn 3047-857X 3047-857X conference Proceedings of the International Symposium on Management (INSYMA) Proceedings of the International Symposium on Management (INSYMA) publisher_name Fakultas Bisnis dan Ekonomika, Universitas Surabaya Fakultas Bisnis dan Ekonomika, Universitas Surabaya no article 47 Volume 22 authors Titin Titin, Izza Nur Abadiyah, Rivatul Ridho Elvierani Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
