In line with the 2030 sustainable development goals (SDGs), breastfeeding is one of the first steps for a human being to get a healthy and prosperous life. Unfortunately, not everyone knows this. In several developed and developing countries including Indonesia, many carrier mothers do not breastfeed exclusively. It was found in Indonesia that almost nine out of ten mothers had given breast milk (ASI), but the IDAI study found that only 49.8 percent gave exclusive breastfeeding for six months as recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO). The research objective was to describe the mother's knowledge of exclusive breastfeeding. This type of research is analytic observational with a case control research design (case control). Subjects consisted of cases and controls with a ratio of 1:1. The sample consisted of 74 cases and 74 controls. The case sample is mothers who have babies aged 6 to 9 months and give exclusive breastfeeding and the control sample is other mothers who give non-exclusive breastfeeding. The results of the bivariate test with chi square obtained a significant effect on the knowledge of mothers about exclusive breastfeeding. It is suggested for the government agencies of the Health Service to make this research the basis of policy formulation regarding the knowledge of mothers about breastfeeding that can be further improved through counseling and public service advertisements so that it will increase the knowledge of mothers about exclusive breastfeeding and it is hoped that behavior changes will occur.
