Rice is the main staple food in Indonesia, making its price stability a critical component of national food security. However, rice prices often fluctuate due to various factors, including climate variability and hydrometeorological disasters. One of the global climate drivers affecting agricultural conditions is the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), which influences rainfall patterns and crop productivity. In addition, disasters such as floods and droughts can disrupt production and distribution, thereby affecting wholesale rice prices. This study aims to forecast wholesale rice prices in Indonesia using the Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average with Exogenous Variables (ARIMAX) model by incorporating ENSO indicators and hydrometeorological disaster variables. Monthly data from January 2015 to February 2026 were analyzed through stationarity testing, model identification, and parameter estimation, followed by model evaluation using Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE). The results show that the best model is ARIMAX(1,1,0), which produces a MAPE value of 3.42%, indicating highly accurate forecasting performance. Despite this high accuracy, the influence of ENSO and disaster variables is relatively weak and occurs with a time lag, suggesting that rice prices are more strongly driven by internal market dynamics. These findings highlight that while climate and disaster factors contribute to price variations, their impact is limited in the short term.
