Abstract

Oyster mushroom farmer group REJOSARI MAKMUR and MANDIRI are two mushroom business groups in Meteseh village which was formed in response to the decline of the indigenous economy. They process mushrooms into chips sold in traditional markets. Their problems are low production capacity, low product diversification, oil content in chips is still high, and product packaging is not carried out properly. The objectives are (1) to develop business partners' mushroom so that they are able to become economically independent communities, (2) improve creative and innovative skills, use appropriate technology skills in draining, packaging, storage and product marketing skills. The method of achieving the goal is to increase production capacity through baglog enhancement, improve the skills and creativity of making various processed mushroom foods, applying oil slicing machines, and developing methods for packaging mushroom food products using packaging machines and labeling on product packaging.

Mushroom entrepreneurs have been able to make various processed mushroom foods from 1  (chips)  into  several  products  including  nuged  and  mushroom  meatballs. Packaging becomes better, attractive and tight so that the flavor increases and food resistant.
