This study evaluates the status of Octopus cyanea fisheries management in Wakatobi Regency based on two domains of the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM): social and economic. A mixed-methods approach was employed, involving observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis. The results indicate that the economic domain was categorized as poor (composite score: 48.33), with asset ownership, household income, and savings indicators scoring 2, 1, and 1, respectively. In contrast, the social domain was categorized as very good (composite score: 88.33), with stakeholder participation and local knowledge utilization scoring 3 (good), and fisheries conflict scoring 2 (moderate). These findings underscore the need to strengthen the economic dimension to support holistic and sustainable octopus fisheries management.
