Abstract

The protection of ecosystems and natural resources continues to be a top priority for the management of the Marine Conservation Area (MCA) of Ujung Kulon National Park (UKNP). Managers haven't given management of the economic and social use issues much thought. In reality, if it is properly managed, the MCA UKNP's economic potential can contribute to raising the economic well-being of the neighbourhood. Estimating the MCA UKNP's economic value and examining its economic and financial viability are the two goals of this manuscript. Survey research is used as the research methodology, together with overall economic valuation and financial and economic feasibility study. The findings of the study are as follows: 1) The mangrove environment, which is worth IDR1,215,105,470,571, and the coral reef ecosystem, which is worth IDR1,390,406,119,529, together make up the overall economic valuation of the MCA UKNP, which is IDR2,605,511,590,100. 2) The financial and economic feasibility analysis's findings indicate that the financial NPV is 1,963,392,508,016 and the economic NPV is 1,927,390,315,754 > 0, the financial Net B/C value is 21,28 and the economic Net B/C value is 19,30 > 1.0, and the financial IRR value is 39.54 and the economic IRR is 39.43% > 20% (MARR). The analyses' findings support the MCA UKNP's declaration that its determination was practicable.

Abstract

Mangrove ecosystems play an important role in human life. It’s ecological role includes trapping sediment, protecting shorelines, and providing a natural habitat. The economic function of mangrove forests is for it to be a place for mangrove ecotourism, source of fisheries, source of food, and so on. This research aimed to quantify the monetary value of mangrove forests in Sari Ringgung. The method used in this study is an exploratory descriptive method that quantifies the total value of direct and indirect use of mangrove forest ecosystems.  The research results showed that the mangroves found mainly consisted of 5 types i.e. Avicennia marina, Rhizophora apculata, Rhizophora mucronata, Rhizophora stylos, and Bruguiera cylindrica. The total economic value of mangrove forests in the Sari Ringgung area, Pesawaran Regency is IDR 109,953,256,105, which consists of the use value ofIDR 46,855,529,425 and the non-use value of IDR 888,172,548. The use value consists of a direct use value of IDR 138,060,000 and an indirect use value of 46,717,469,425, while the non-use value consists of an existence value of 874,366,548, an option value of 62,209,554,132 and a value of 13,806,000.  The total economic value of the mangrove forests was in the high-value category, although the area of mangrove forests in Sari Ringgung and Pesawaran Regency has decreased.

Abstract

Guiding barrier fishing gear has been used in recent years in the mangrove, seagrass, and coral ecosystem areas of Bontang City. In previous studies, the main target, white-spotted spinefoot fish, has depreciated and degraded as a result of overfishing. This study calculates the economic benefits and attempts to analyze the management policy of guiding barrier fishing gear to overcome the depreciation and degradation problems. To calculate the economic benefits, the fisheries production approach was used, while the policy analysis used the interpretive structural model technique. During the peak season of white-spotted spinefoot fish, the average fisherman earns up to IDR400,750 per day, with a minimum of IDR103,000 and a maximum of IDR1,904,000. The optimal fishing period is nine months, after which fishermen will stop fishing in Ramadan, August, and September. There are six guiding barrier fishing gear management policies, namely: 1) open and close systems at the installation site; 2) increase the mesh size used; 3) reduce the number; 4) moratorium on new installations; 5) limit the number of owners for each fisherman; and 6) regulate the distance between guiding barrier fishing gear. Of the six policy alternatives, the top priority is to increase the mesh size used.

Abstract

Spiny lobster fisheries production, provides a fairly high economic value compared to other fisheries commodities in Gunungkidul Regency. The high selling value of spiny lobsters is one of the main factors that encourage fishermen to carry out their fishing activities massively, so it can have a negative impact on the environment and spiny lobster stocks in the waters. This study aims to map the interaction and connectivity of the social-ecological system (SES) of lobster fisheries on the coast of Gunungkidul Regency. The analysis method utilized is Social-Ecological Network Analysis (SENA) with R stundio tools and Cytoscape version 3.9.1. Data were obtained from in-depth interviews using questionnaires with key informants based on purposive sampling techniques. The results of the analysis showed that there were 94 elements and 216 relationships in the basic network model of multi SES lobster fisheries. The key variables that most affect the lobster fishing network are fishing season, fishing activity, lobster stock, and fishermen's income. There needs to be synergy between the resources system (RS), resources unit (RU), resources actor (RA), and resources governance (RG) such as monitoring and evaluation from RG to other systems in order to create optimal and sustainable lobster fisheries management.

Abstract

Marine Protected Areas (MPA) were created to address overfishing, which can harm fishing communities and reduce the number of fish. This affects how much food is available and how happy people feel, especially for people who work as small-scale fishermen. They depend on catching fish to meet their needs. This study aimed to find out what factors affect fishermen's choice to participate in MPAs. It was done in Malang and Probolinggo Regencies in East Java, with 200 fishermen involved in the research. This research gathers information by asking people questions through a survey. The survey has a set of questions that are planned. The economist studies the probit model to determine what factors affect fishermen's choice to join MPAs. The findings indicated that factors like family members, marital status, number of fishing gear, market access, and savings did not have a noteworthy impact on the involvement of small-scale fishermen in MPAs. But, things like how old they are, how much education they have, whether they belong to a fishermen's group, if they work outside of fishing, and if they are part of a cooperative all greatly impact whether small fishermen participate in MPAs.

Abstract

The economic benefits of hand line production activities carried out by small fishermen utilizing some inputs to produce high economic value output each season in the Kei Kecil small island park (TPK) conservation area differ according to the driving power. Production cost efficiency, effectiveness of production results, and business profits are very important for the sustainability and development of small-scale hand-line fisheries. This study aims to analyze the economics of small-scale hand line production based on the driving power in each season in the TPK Kei conservation area. The type of data needed is primary and secondary data, and the collection method used is triangulation. The analysis used includes analysis of business profits, production cost efficiency, and effectiveness of production results. The results of the analysis show that the production of hand line carried out in the TPK Kei Kecil conservation area in each season is more efficient and effective in the hand line fishing fleet that uses hand line rowing and the highest business profit is the hand line fishing fleet that uses ketinting driving power. The production of small-scale hand lines in the TPK Kei conservation area is small in each season efficiently, effectively, and profitably.

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

As one of the main stakeholders in the fishing industry, shrimp farmers are directly affected by climate change that causes changes in seawater temperature, rainfall, and unpredictable weather patterns. Related to the issue, the threat to income may be felt by shrimp farmers. Therefore, in this study, we highlight two objectives as a basis for drawing up this article, namely (1) to understand shrimp farmers’ perceptions of climate change, and (2) to identify factors that influence farmers’ decisions in implementing adaptation strategies. There are two types of analysis that we use, namely descriptive analysis and logit regression analysis. Our findings show that the majority of shrimp farmers consider climate change manifested in the form of changes in rainfall patterns (96.21%), increases in pond water temperatures (98.71%), decreases in yield production (95.41%), and increases in shrimp pests and diseases (96.23%). The results of our logit regression analysis show that the decision-making factors of shrimp farmers are significantly influenced. These results indicate that the implementation of adaptation strategies in the fisheries sector can generate significant growth and reduce the risks posed by climate change. As a result, the government needs to encourage the development of more suitable climate change adaptation strategies for small-scale shrimp farmers in Indonesia.

Abstract

Removing marine sediment is a Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries program regulated by Government Regulation No. 26 of 2023. Five priority locations have been designated for the removal of marine sediment: Riau Islands Province, West Java Province, East Kalimantan Province, Central Java Province, and East Java Province. This study uses input-output analysis to measure and compare the economic impacts of sediment removal activities on the economies of these five provinces. The input-output table results show that the highest output multiplier for sediment removal activities is in East Kalimantan Province with a value of 1.48, while the lowest is in the Riau Islands Province with a value of 1.22. The highest income multiplier is also found in East Kalimantan Province with a value of 0.3710, followed by Riau Islands Province with a value of 0.3513. In East Kalimantan and Riau Islands, sediment removal is a key sector with strong forward linkages to other sectors but weak backward linkages. One strategy to enhance the economic impact of sediment removal is for the government to spend non-tax state revenue (PNBP) from this activity on key sectors in each province.

Abstract

Kebumen Waters is a coastal area in the southern part of Central Java, where white pomfret (Pampus argenteus) is the main commodity. However, its potential has not been fully optimized to support the fishermen's economy due to capital issues. This study employs interviews and field observations to collect data from relevant agencies, with respondents selected through the purposive sampling of 16 fishermen. The research findings indicate that the white pomfret fishery at PPI Pasir operates using 1 GT boat equipped with gill nets that have mesh sizes of 4.5–6.5 inches. The feasibility analysis reveals a profit of IDR 2,658,720.00 and an R/C of 1.03, confirming that the white pomfret fishery at PPI Pasir is viable for continuation. Three financing patterns for the fishermen's businesses at PPI Pasir have been identified, operational supplier financing, banking financing, and non-formal institutional financing, with non-formal institutions being the most advantageous source of funding. However, this type of non-formal financing has the drawback that fishermen do not receive their full income, making it necessary to synchronize all available funding sources at PPI Pasir.
