The type of data used is quantitative data. The data source used is secondary data. The data analysis used is ET and IMC analysis. The results of this study indicate that: (1) The price transmission that occurs between the Mandalika main market and the Kebon Roek retail market is running inefficiently. This can be seen from the ET value < 1, which is 0. 734, indicating that if there is a change in the price of large red chilies at the wholesale market level by 1%, the price at the retail market level will change by 734%. It can be stated that price changes at the retail market level are not well transmitted to prices at the main market level. This shows that there is an imperfect competition market in the marketing of large red chilies in both markets. (2) Market integration in the marketing of Large Red Chili at the Mandalika Main Market with the Kebon Roek Retail Market in Mataram City, namely IMC = 1. 710 means that IMC > 1 means that market integration is low. This shows that the prices at the Mandalika Main Market are not fully transformed to the market level Kebon Roek retailer.
