This study aims to determine the potential development of fish culture by using Benefit Cost Ratio analysis.

Judging from the result of Benefit Cost Ratio of 1.82, it means that the fish farming business in Lake Maninjau is profitable with a profit of 1.82 greater than the costs incurred by fish farmers. This also indicates that the fish farming business in Lake Maninjau is feasible and provides financial benefits
