description The potential for vegetables in Indonesia is enormous. However, activities both upstream and downstream are still not well developed so that Indonesia is still importing horticulture to meet domestic needs. Because the potential for horticulture has not been maximized, the Ministry of Agriculture is holding a Horticultural Village program, one of which is in Central Java. The Horticultural Village Program that has been running requires a strategy to increase its sustainability. This research was conducted in Central Java to determine strategies to improve the sustainability of the horticultural village program. The method used in this study is multidimensional scaling (MDS) with the rapid appraisal for horticultural village (RAP-HORVI) technique or RAP-HORVIs. This research method will produce an index value that will determine the sustainability status of all dimensions used, namely, input, process, output, and outcome. The result of this analysis is that the Horticultural Village in Central Java is in a quite sustainable status. The results of this MDS show that 12 sensitive attributes can be used as strategies in increasing the value and sustainability status of Horticultural Villages in Central Java, namely, business management training, availability of production tools and materials, suitability of production input facilities, technical training, availability of capital, optimizing the use of infrastructure assistance, checking on farmers/micro, small, and medium enterprises beneficiaries of SK CPCL, intensive assistance by trainers, increasing planting area, increasing the number and variety of plant types, planning the area of land ready for planting, and increasing business capital.
