The research was conducted at freshwater aquaculture locations in West Kao and Tobelo. The method used purposive sampling methods, observation, and interviews, data analysis used qualitative descriptive methods and SWOT. The results showed that human resources and skills in cultivating fish, availability of land, water sources and locations, the existence of Balai Benih Ikan Lokal are strength factors, while capital and experience, quality and quantity of seeds are weaknesses that affect the development of freshwater aquaculture. On the other hand, threats such as the lack of government guidance and assistance, weather, location security are obstacles in taking advantage of opportunities consisting of opening employment opportunities, developing cultivation technology including Minapadi, selling prices, and marketing.
