Karangsari Village is one of the villages that has developed oyster mushroom cultivation through the Shodaqoh Sampah Group. The effectiveness of this enterprise is not only determined by the technical aspects of cultivation but also by community responses toward oyster mushroom cultivation. This activity aims to analyze community responses to oyster mushroom cultivation and to identify internal and external factors correlated with these responses. Community responses were measured through three aspects: cognitive, affective, and conative. The method employed emphasized a participatory approach. Community responses were collected through focus group discussions (FGDs), questionnaires, and interviews. The data obtained were then analyzed descriptively to determine the tendency of community responses. The results indicate that community responses in the cognitive, affective, and conative aspects were categorized as very good. Correlation analysis showed that age had a significant negative correlation with responses, while income had a significant positive relationship. External factors, such as access to information and social support, had more dominant positive influence on all response aspects. These findings emphasize that the sustainability of oyster mushroom cultivation in Karangsari Village can be strengthened through improving access to information and enhancing community social support.
