Many vannamei shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) ponds in Jatimalang Village are not producing, despite the fact that the potential for success in the pond industry is quite strong, as evidenced by high market demand and the suitability of the area for pond construction. As a result, this research was carried out in order to identify the source of the problem and offer remedies that can be implemented using the Social Ecological System (SES) approach and the method DPSIR (Driving Forces, Pressures, State, Impacts, and Responses). According to the research, the less than optimal pond land in Jatimalang Village was caused by a variety of factors, so it was necessary to have microfinance, infrastructure provision, farmers' ability and knowledge in pond management, the formation of farmer groups, a policy of converting land into ponds, the application of WWTP, changes in farmers' lifestyles, routine monitoring of water quality, the application of pond biosecurity, and business.
