Abstract

The utilization of backyard for oyster mushroom cultivation has been done in Panggoi Village, Muara Dua sub-district, Lhokseumawe-Aceh City, Indonesia. Besides becoming source of food and meeting nutritional needs, this cultivation program has also increased family income living in the area. In addition, this activity encourages consumption of various local ingredients through a balanced diet, which is expected to help reduce dependency on rice consumption. The cultivation area is 4m x 4m which is enough to accommodate 1,000 baglog. For the program to be sustainable, a feasibility study for Break-Event Point (BEP) has been conducted. The results show that cultivating 1,000 units of baglog of white oyster mushroom creates IDR 9,496,889 worth of profit at every one production cycle (4 months). Based on the calculation, it can be concluded that BEP is reached when 220,12 kg of mushrooms are sold (BEPproduction). As for the BEP Unit, the break-even point is on the cultivation of 46 baglog. This implies that the use of backyard for the cultivation of oyster mushrooms is feasible to be performed in hope for an increase in family income.
