Indonesia is a country which becomes the third largest producer of rice in the world. However, Indonesia still carries out rice importing and the rice is classified high-priced. One of the factors causing those problems is the lack of efficiency of rice milling process. Pandeglang Regency is a region which has the largest rice field in Banten. As the largest agricultural territory and a qualified rice producer, it must be possible to have rice-milling means. The rice-milling process does not

Thus, efficiency measuring of rice-milling process is needed to find out the output increase or input decrease used in ricemilling process in order to reach an efficient point. Method applied in measuring the efficiency is AHP/DEA method. Based on acquired research results, the efficiency level at the research location was 90.01% in which from 11 rice-milling processes there was one inefficient rice-milling process which was the C rice-milling process.
