ABSTRACT Cashew nut was one of many promising export commodities due to the good rate in the market and the raising of the economic level of the farmers. Marketing system of cashew nut in Muna Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province was always sold of form of freshly nuts so as to lost in its added value. The commitment to develop the nut industry in the level of small and medium enterprises needed a model of strategy to study. SWOT analysis of the system actors (the farmers, the local buyers, the market sellers, and the factories and store owners) as producers was used to solve the problems in the accurate strategy. The system actors as produced freshly nuts in the form of pure nuts, and the government as a policy decision maker controlled the availability of freshly nut, and feasibility of the market price. In conducting to special short courses the actors was motivated to stimulate some enterprises for increasing the added value of freshly nuts. Dynamic model for development system of this nut industry was designed by the computer software namely Powersim 1.03 of windows version. From SWOT analysis of the problems could be concluded that the precise strategy were widering the interprises and generating the extraordinary of the new enterprises. Nevertheles, the reliable model could be chosen from many scenarios of plantation area and cashew trees productivities. Based on the model simulation, the availability of freshly nuts was increased because the production always increased each year. The potentials of enterprise units were also raising each year, and so the actual enterprise unit became growth as well. By these conditions, the benefit of both enterprise unit and area were getting better as a consequence of the increasing market price and the actual enterprise unit yearly.
