Abstract

Blue Swimming Crab (Portunus pelagicus) is one of the economically important marine commodities produced from the waters of Pangkajene Islands. Market demand for blue swimming crabs continues to increase. According to the Pangkep Regency Marine and Fisheries Department, in 2010, crab production from fishing activities in the waters of Pangkep Regency reached 1,819.7 tons. The fishing gear used to catch blue swimming crabs is the crab gillnet. Based on the above, it is necessary to conduct fishing activities that are more profitable and responsible. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the financial aspects of the crab gillnet fishing gear in Salemo Island during March–May 2018. This research employed a survey method, with data collected through questionnaires using the random sampling method from fishermen operating crab gillnets. Based on the results, the R/C ratio > 1, with an average R/C ratio value of 1.31, meaning that for every Rp 1 invested, the return is Rp 1.31, or a margin of Rp 0.31. This indicates that the blue swimming crab gillnet fishery business in Salemo Island, Pangkep Regency, is financially feasible and has the potential to continue and develop further.
