Breast milk contains immune substances that provide protection against various diseases and also contains enzymes that will help digestion. The results of a pre-survey conducted in Desa Penanggalan, Kota Subulussalam, showed that the coverage of babies that receiving exclusive breast milk had not reached the target. One of the factors causing the low level of breastfeeding for babies is due to the lack of breast milk production coverage.

This type of research uses a qualitative approach with a purposive sampling method. Data collection techniques in the field are carried out using observation, structured interviews and documentation.
