Abstract

This study analyzes the economic feasibility and assesses the production risk of the purse seine business based on the fleet capacity in Ohoi Sathean. The types of data needed are primary and secondary data collected using data triangulation. The number of samples is 14 fleets with capacities of 10 GT, 26 GT, 27 GT, and 30 GT. Data were analyzed using business feasibility analysis and business sensitivity analysis. The results of the business feasibility analysis showed that the highest value of RC ratio = 2.13 for a fleet of 10 GT means better operational efficiency, the highest investment criterion value NPV = USD 483,570, BC ratio = 6.39, PP = 2.55, and IRR = 98% for a fleet of 27 GT means better investment feasibility. The sensitivity of the purse seine business to the condition of fuel increase for kerosene 27% and diesel 30%, the highest value of RC ratio = 2.05 for the 10 GT fleet, the highest investment criterion value NPV = USD 205,791, BC ratio = 3.29, IRR = 51% for the 27 GT fleet, while PP = 4.76 years for the 10 GT fleet. In the condition of a 20% decrease in production, the highest value RC ratio = 1.97 is in the 10 GT fleet, the highest investment criteria in NPV = USD146,864, BC ratio = 2.68, and IRR = 41% in the 27 GT fleet, while PP = 5.80 is the lowest in the 10 GT fleet. The 10 GT purse seine business is efficient against changes in inputs and outputs, and the 27 GT is suitable for changes in inputs and outputs. The study aims to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of 26 GT and 30 GT fleets, and support the development of 10 GT and 27 GT purse seine to optimize catches.

Abstract

Cilacap Regency, located in Central Java, has growing fisheries potential, particularly known for its aquaculture activities such as milkfish farming. However, the fish feeding system is still mostly done manually, which affects productivity and efficiency. This research aims to develop and analyze environmentally friendly fish feeding technology to increase the income and welfare of the milkfish farming community. The study involves designing a Tosfeed using a tool design modeller and utilizing solar panels as the main energy source, ensuring sustainability and independence from electricity. Stability and structural analyses showed that the Tosfeed is sturdy and reliable when used in aquaculture ponds. Furthermore, economic feasibility analysis revealed a production cost of IDR 11,795,375 with a payback period of 11 months through a bank loan scheme. This scheme was chosen because it has the highest IRR (23.10%) compared to other options, thus accelerating the profit farmers can earn. Tosfeed effectively automates fish feeding, improving efficiency and productivity for aquaculture businesses. This innovation is expected to empower fish farming MSMEs by providing a reliable, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective solution for sustainable aquaculture.

Abstract

Flooding occurs almost annually in Kedungboto Village, Pasuruan Regency, Indonesia, restricting farmers to a single rice-growing season due to prolonged field inundation. As an adaptive strategy, some farmers integrate fish farming during the rainy season; however, its contribution to farm efficiency remains insufficiently examined. This study aims to evaluate the technical efficiency of rice farming in flood-prone areas and to analyze the factors influencing farmers decisions to adopt rice-fish farming systems. A total of 120 farmers were surveyed, comprising 60 rice-fish farmers and 60 rice-only farmers. Technical efficiency was measured using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), while logistic regression was employed to identify the determinants of adoption. The results indicate that rice-fish farmers achieve higher average technical efficiency (0.82) than rice-only farmers (0.67). Technical efficiency, landholding size, farm income, knowledge of fish farming, and access to freshwater fish markets significantly influence adoption decisions. An odds ratio of 1.054 suggests that higher technical efficiency increases the likelihood of adopting rice-fish systems. These findings highlight the role of rice-fish integration in enhancing farm performance and resilience. Strengthening extension services and improving flood control infrastructure are essential to support sustainable and wider adoption.

Abstract

North Galesong Sub-district, Takalar Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia, has considerable coastal tourism potential that requires sustainable management to prevent environmental degradation. This study aimed to evaluate the carrying capacity of the Galesong Beach tourism area as a basis for sustainable tourism management. Field surveys were conducted at Galesong Beach in Sampulungan Village, using primary data collected through observations, environmental measurements, interviews, and visitor questionnaires. The data included tourism area size, visitor characteristics, environmental conditions, management capacity, and visitor length of stay. The carrying capacity of a tourist area is estimated using the Physical Carrying Capacity (PCC), Real Carrying Capacity (RCC), Management Capacity (MC), and Effective Carrying Capacity (ECC) equations. The tourism area covered 1.8 ha, with 15,200 m² available for tourism activities. The PCC was estimated at 170 visitors per day, exceeding the average visitation of 50 visitors per day. After considering environmental constraints, the RCC decreased to 42 visitors per day, while the MC reached 96.36%, resulting in an ECC of 40 visitors per day or approximately 1,200 visitors per month. These findings provide a scientific basis for regulating visitor numbers and supporting sustainable coastal tourism management in North Galesong.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the structure, model, actors, resources, business processes, and performance of the fisheries commodity supply chain in East Kalimantan and to identify an appropriate supply chain model to optimize the income and welfare of fishermen and fish farmers. An explanatory sequential mixed-methods approach was employed over six months across Kutai Kartanegara, Berau, North Penajam Paser, Balikpapan, Samarinda, and Bontang. The findings indicate that capture fisheries and aquaculture contribute substantially to regional fisheries production, with aquaculture showing the most significant annual growth, supported by government assistance through the provision of high-quality fish seed. Kutai Kartanegara and Balikpapan remain the leading contributors to the fisheries sector. Despite increasing production, distribution efficiency remains suboptimal. Patron–client relationships between fishermen and collectors create asymmetric market power, limiting fishermen's bargaining position and preventing them from determining fair prices, thereby constraining their welfare. Strengthening fishermen's human capital and entrepreneurial capacity is essential to increase value addition through fish processing and product diversification, enabling higher incomes. The study recommends improving fisheries supply chain infrastructure and logistics while enhancing transparency in market information systems to create a more efficient, equitable, and sustainable fisheries supply chain.

Abstract

Indonesia's seaweed sector has emerged as a strategic contributor to global aquaculture, though its export competitiveness varies across international markets. This study analyses dynamics of Indonesian seaweed exports to China and the United States from 2013 to 2023, focusing on comparative advantage, trade specialization, and intra-industry trade patterns. Utilizing secondary data from UN Comtrade (HS Code 1212), three quantitative indicators Revealed Comparative Advantage (RCA), Index of Trade Specialization (ISP), and Intra-Industry Trade (IIT) were employed to assess market performance and trade integration. The results indicate that Indonesia possesses a strong, consistent comparative advantage in the Chinese market, driven by stable demand for raw seaweed and carrageenan production, whereas competitiveness in the U.S. market has improved but remains more volatile. Positive ISP values indicate a high degree of export specialization, reflecting Indonesia's position as a net exporter of seaweed commodities in international markets. High and stable IIT values demonstrate robust intra-industry trade integration, underscoring Indonesia's active role in the global seaweed value chain beyond mere one-way commodity exports. Policy implications highlight the need to develop downstream processing, diversify products, enhance quality standards, and strengthen strategic trade partnerships to shift Indonesia's position from a raw material supplier to a value-added player in the global market, thereby ensuring sustainable export growth and long-term competitiveness.

Abstract

North Rupat District is one of the areas located in Bengkalis Regency and is on the border of the Republic of Indonesia with the Malacca Strait. This district has considerable fisheries potential in producing catches, especially dorab wolf-herring (Chirocentrus dorab). This study aims to analyze the level of effort and catch of dorab wolf-herring under MSY (Maximum Sustainable Yield), MEY (Maximum Economic Yield), and OA (Open Access), calculate economic rents, and analyze the level of utilization of dorab wolf-herring resources in the waters of North Rupat District. This research was conducted using a survey method through direct field interviews using a questionnaire. The data analysis used was bioeconomic analysis using the five-model approach estimation. The results showed that dorab wolf-herring production in the waters of North Rupat District, under optimal conditions, was at the MEY condition, namely at a production level of 313.34 tons/year with an effort level of 415 units/year. The optimum profit obtained at the highest utilization of dorab wolf-herring resources is at the MEY condition, which is IDR 7,846,772,695, and the level of dorab wolf-herring resource utilization is obtained at 55%, which means that it has not experienced overfishing both economically and biologically.

Abstract

This study explores the patron-client relations between boat owners and crew members (ABK) in Puger Kulon Village, Jember Regency, focusing on social dynamics, labor hierarchy, and economic dependency in the marine fisheries sector. Boat owners control production tools such as vessels and fishing gear, and hold authority in making operational decisions during fishing trips. Conversely, crew members occupy a subordinate position due to limited access to capital and dependence solely on physical labor for income. However, the patron-client relations observed are not purely one-directional or repressive. There are informal spaces for negotiation and subtle resistance that allow ABK to express their concerns. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, the research employed purposive and snowball sampling to select informants. Data were gathered through in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation, then analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s interactive model. The findings reveal that profit-sharing systems, community norms, and job distribution structures reflect complex and dynamic power relations. The traditional saraan system is used to divide income among crew members based on their roles and contributions. This study shows that power within fishing communities is relational, not absolute, and continuously shaped by everyday social practices.

Abstract

This study examines the Sasi Laut ritual system practiced by the Indigenous Matbat community in Folley Village, Raja Ampat, to understand how customary marine governance shapes community-based economic practices. Using a qualitative ethnographic approach involving participant observation, in-depth interviews, and document analysis, the study interprets the findings through Indigenous Blue Entrepreneurship (IBE), proposed as a conceptual lens that synthesizes insights from Blue Entrepreneurship and Indigenous Entrepreneurship. The findings show that Sasi Laut functions not only as a customary institution for marine conservation but also as a system that integrates Indigenous ecological knowledge, customary governance, marine-based innovation, and communal economic practices. The involvement of the church and conservation organizations has contributed to the transformation of Sasi Laut while reinforcing its role in supporting sustainable livelihoods. At the same time, the system faces challenges from external resource exploitation and socio-cultural change. This study contributes to discussions on Indigenous entrepreneurship and sustainable marine resource governance by demonstrating how Indigenous economic practices are embedded in reciprocal relationships among culture, ecology, and community well-being.

Abstract

Coastal areas play a strategic role in national development, yet there remains a disparity between their abundant natural resource potential and community well-being. Various environmental issues, such as poor health outcomes, limited access to clean water, and suboptimal waste management, pose obstacles to improving the well-being of coastal communities. Therefore, a sustainable development approach that integrates economic, social, and environmental aspects is needed. This study aims to develop a Green Banking-Based Circular Economy (GBB-CE) model for waste management in Sukolilo Baru Village, Surabaya, as an effort to support the National Economic Recovery (PEN) in coastal areas. The study employed SWOC (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Challenges) analysis to identify strategic factors, as well as content analysis using NVIVO 12 Plus to explore stakeholders’ perspectives on variables supporting the GBB-CE. The results of the SWOC analysis indicate that active community involvement is a key factor in preserving the environment, including through behaviors such as refraining from disposing of waste into the sea or in locations that could potentially pollute the environment. An analysis using NVIVO 12 Plus shows that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the capture fisheries sector emphasize optimizing the economic potential of coastal areas, including the utilization of waste, while the Surabaya City Environmental Agency prioritizes waste reduction and environmental conservation.
