Abstract

“Ikan makan” and “ikan tacucu” are the terms found in purse seine fishing systems in Maluku which is one of the important sources in the economic sustainability of fishermen crews’ households. This study aims to: 1) Describe the meaning and function of “ikan makan” and “ikan tacucu” in the context of purse seine fisheries in Maluku, 2) Analyze the importance of “ikan makan” and “ikan tacucu” in improving the economy of purse seine crews households, and 3) Analyze the importance of “ikan makan” and “ikan tacucu” in overcoming the financial insecurity for purse seine crews households. This research was conducted by using a survey method. Data were analyzed by using qualitative and quantitative descriptive analysis. The results show that there are two patterns of the distribution of “ikan makan”; first share the fish equally among the all crews and then each of them is responsible for it; second, selling all the “ikan makan” and the money will be divided equally among all crew members. The income of the crews from the sale of “ikan makan” in fish season is IDR 69,000 – 166,000/trip and in no fish season fish IDR 44,000 – 111,000/trip. Income from the sale of “ikan makan” during the fish season and no fish season are not able to overcome the households financial insecurity and only to reduce or suppress it.

Abstract

Traditional fish processing businesses represent a vital livelihood and economic sector in Maluku’s small islands. Understanding the precise allocation of gender roles within these enterprises is crucial for enhancing family economic resilience and developing effective sectoral policy. This research aims to analyze gender roles in traditional fish processing businesses. A sample of 24 fish processing business units was drawn purposively from several smoked fish processing places in Ambon City, dried fish in Eastern Seram Regency (Geser) and salted fish in Central Maluku Regency (Perigi). The data obtained was analyzed descriptive quantitatively. The research results show that activities in each traditional fish processing business can be divided into pre-production, production, and post-production stages, with the number of activities in each stage varying. In the smoked fish business, women and men collaborate significantly in the pre-production and production stages. In contrast, in post-production activities, women have significant roles in selling the products. In the dried and salted fish business, pre-production and production activities are mainly carried out by women, while men carry out post-production activities. Most of the men in the village who produce dried and salted fish earn their living as fishermen, so pre-production and production activities are carried out by women during the day when their husbands are at sea. The smoked fish produced is generally sold locally around the production site, while dried and salted fish are sold outside the island and the province.
