Abstract

The cultivation of Nila Larasati tilapia in Argorejo Village, Sedayu, Bantul, was carried out through a multiyear community service program by Ahmad Dahlan University in collaboration with the Rejo Ayu Fish Farmers Group. The program included pond construction, seed selection, stocking, and maintenance. Two ponds (4×5×2 m³ and 3×7×2 m³) were built on a 100 m² backyard, protected by a 2-meter galvanized fence and shading nets to prevent predators. A total of 3,000 fingerlings were stocked at around 200 fish/kg and fed twice daily. After three months, the fish reached market size (8–9 fish/kg), producing 300–320 kg per cycle and generating IDR 8.4–9.6 million in gross income at prices of IDR 28,000–30,000/kg. This shows successful adoption of aquaculture technology and improved community capacity. However, issues like predation by Varanus salvator and limited stocking due to financial constraints remain. To improve productivity and sustainability, future programs should enhance biosecurity and expand access to micro financing.
