This study aims to analyze the level of price variation and market integration of red chili in Ciamis Regency. The coefficient of variation analysis is used to analyze the level of price variation and the Johansen cointegration approach with the Vector Autoregression (VAR) / Vector Error Correction Model (VECM) model to analyze market integration. The results showed that the price fluctuation of red chili at the producer and consumer level was high and unstable. The results of the analysis of market integration show that there is market integration between the producer market and the consumer market in the long run but in the short term, they adjust to each other in the long term Keywords---cointegration, market integration, red chilies, vector auto regression (VAR), vector error correction model (VECM).
