<![CDATA[Anchovy fishermen in Tlanakan District, Pamekasan Regency, contribute significantly to the local economy, but face challenges in the form of weather fluctuations, price instability, and technological limitations. This study aims to analyze the economic behavior, social status, and income risk of fishermen using a quantitative approach with indicators of risk preference, time preference, technology adoption, culture, sea experience, education level, and age. Income risk is analyzed through the coefficient of variation. The results show that fishermen prefer to catch anchovies because of the low risk and stability of the catch.

However, uncertainty due to weather changes remains a major obstacle.]]>
