DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY OF CAPTURE FISHERIES
AGRIBUSINESS IN THE NORTH COAST AREA OF BATANG
REGENCY
Introduction:
The fisheries sector is one of the sectors that plays an important role in national
development efforts. This sector is also the main source of high-protein food providers that
are favored by the general public. Indonesia as a maritime country is known to have a water
area of 5.8 million km² which almost covers 2/3 of the entire area. This provides a great
opportunity for the Indonesian people to utilize fishery resources as optimally as possible for
the country's economic development through inclusive and sustainable agribusiness activities.
Law No. 45 of 2009 on the amendment of Law No. 31 of 2004 on Fisheries states that
fisheries are all activities related to the management and utilization of fish resources and the
environment, starting from pre-production, production, processing to marketing carried out in
a fisheries business system. This definition shows that this sector can become the foundation
of the main economic source through the creation of wider employment opportunities and can
become a source of foreign exchange.
Optimal and sustainable management of fisheries resources is an important key to long-
term national economic development. KKP in the 2015-2019 Strategic Plan has a vision of
"Realizing an independent, advanced, strong and national interest-based Indonesian marine
and fisheries sector" which is then followed by 3 main mission pillars to realize the sea as the
nation's future, namely sovereignty mission, sustainability mission, and welfare mission.
Sovereignty, means realizing sovereign marine and fisheries development, in order to support
economic independence by securing marine and fisheries resources, and reflecting Indonesia's
personality as an archipelago. Sustainability, which means realizing sustainable management
of marine and fisheries resources. Prosperity, which means realizing a marine and fisheries
community that is prosperous, advanced, independent, and has a personality in culture.
The GDP growth of the fisheries sector has always been above the national GDP and
GDP of the agriculture sector in the period 2014 to the third quarter of 2017. In the third
quarter of 2017, fisheries GDP growth reached 6.79 percent with a value of Rp 169 513.10
billion (BPS in KKP 2018). This is supported by domestic fisheries production which tends to
increase, especially for the capture fisheries subsector. BPS (2017) stated that capture
fisheries production during the period 2011-2016 experienced a growth of 13.19 percent. The
increase was driven by an increase in marine capture fisheries production by 9.49 percent and
an increase in capture fisheries production in public waters by 3.02 percent, while aquaculture
experienced growth of only 2.91 percent during the same period. Meanwhile, the production
of capture fisheries according to BPS in KKP can be seen in Table 1.
Based on Table 1, the amount of capture fisheries production appears to have an
increasing trend. This is in line with the increase in fisheries consumption every year. In 2014,
the level of fish consumption by Indonesians reached 38.14 kg/capita/year; in 2015, it reached
41.11 kg/capita/year; and in 2015, the level of fish consumption by Indonesians reached 41.11
kg/capita/year.
2016 reached 43.94 kg/capita/year (KKP 2018).
Central Java is one of the provinces in Indonesia with the lowest percentage
contribution of fisheries to GRDP compared to other provinces outside Java. In 2014, Central
Java contributed 1.05 percent in the fisheries sector to GRDP at current prices (BPS 2017).
This may be due to the fact that Central Java does not have a long coastline compared to other
regions outside Java, which is 741.58 km (BPS 2017). However, based on the receipt of
marine and fisheries investment in 2017 in the third quarter, Central Java ranks first with an
investment value of Rp 797.76 billion (19.8 percent), followed by Jakarta with Rp 644.50
billion (16.0 percent), and East Java with Rp 461.22 billion (11.4 percent) (BKPM and OJK,
processed by Ditjen PDS-KKP 2018). This shows that the fisheries and marine sector in
Central Java has the potential to be developed.
The coast of Central Java is divided into the North Coast (Rembang, Pati, Jepara,
Demak, Semarang, Kendal, Batang, Pekalongan, Pemalang, Tegal, Brebes) and the South
Coast (Cilacap, Kebumen, Purworejo). Batang Regency, as one of the regions on the North
Coast, has a coastline of 38.75 km. The total production of capture fisheries in Batang
Regency is known to be the second highest in 2014 and the third highest in 2015 in Central
Java, after Rembang Regency and Tegal City. The production amount and production value of
marine capture fisheries sold at TPIs by regency/city in Central Java are shown in Appendix
1. Meanwhile, the production amount and production value of fish in Batang Regency can be
seen in Table 2 below.
Based on Table 2, it can be seen that the amount of production of capture fisheries in
Batang Regency has increased. In 2014 the number of
fish production reached 27 974 811 kilograms, increasing to 30 444 433 kilograms in 2015.
Despite the increase in the amount of production, the value of fisheries production decreased.
In 2014 the value of fisheries production reached Rp 206 165 572 000 and then fell in 2015.
2015 to Rp 169 188 484 000. The total production of fishery products in 2015 ranks 3rd, but
the value of production ranks 5th after Kab. Rembang, Kota Tegal, Kota Pekalongan, and
Kab. Pemalang.
The fisheries and marine sector is the main source of livelihood for coastal
communities, not only for on-farm fishermen, but also for fisheries production facility
providers, and processed fish product businesses (MSMEs). In 2012, the capture fisheries
subsector was known to contribute 2.35 percent to the GRDP of Batang Regency
(Dislutkanak 2012). Although this contribution is not very large compared to others, the
fisheries and marine sector, especially capture fisheries, is the strategic core of Batang
Regency's regional development as one of the North Coast Region routes.
The capture fisheries subsector is one of the key economic developments for Batang
Regency. However, various problems hamper the development process. Environmental
aspects and the preservation of marine resources are the main issues related to the welfare of
business actors in the capture fisheries subsector. The main problems, such as the use of
fishing gear that is not environmentally friendly and the decline in the potential of fisheries
resources, are the beginning of the lack of development of capture fisheries agribusiness in
Batang Regency. Therefore, it is necessary to assess and formulate further development
strategies for the capture fisheries agribusiness system in Kabupaten Batang, in order to
become an independent and sustainable source of economic growth and development. The
study of this development strategy is very important, because it can provide answers to
various problems in the capture fisheries agribusiness, as well as provide alternative
formulations of what strategies are appropriate to answer the existing challenges based on the
internal and external analysis conducted, as well as the actual conditions in the field.
Problem Formulation
Capture fisheries agribusiness is an integrated system in the capture fisheries sector
consisting of upstream to downstream subsystems, namely the fisheries production facilities
supply subsystem, production subsystem, processing and marketing (post-production)
subsystem, and support subsystem. Based on this, the capture fisheries sector provides other
sources of economic value besides fishing activities, such as shipbuilding projects, sales of
fishing raw materials, ice factories, fish processing centers, fish product buying and selling
markets, and the provision of supporting institutions. Batang Regency as one of the largest
capture fish producers in Central Java has a fairly good capture fisheries agribusiness system,
although there are still many obstacles and problems. According to data from the Batang
Regency Marine, Fisheries and Livestock Service Office (2017), the potential for human
resources in all businesses engaged in the marine and fisheries sector amounted to around 14
924 people (consisting of 11 745 fishermen).
1 088 fishery product processors and marketers, and 2 091 cultivators).
The main factor of production facilities for capture fisheries is boats. Batang Regency
fishermen use two types of fishing boats, namely outboard motor boats and motor boats. The
supply of vessels can be obtained from the local shipyard industry, which is known to have
continued to increase since 2007. The total ownership of fishing vessels in 2017 in Batang
Regency was 832, an increase of 105 vessels from 2015 which amounted to 727 vessels. This
shows that the number of fishing vessels used tends to increase every year, in line with the
increase in the number of fishing households in Batang Regency. This means that every year
the number of Batang coastal communities that depend on the capture fisheries sector is
increasing.
There are more than 30 types of marine fish that are the source of income for fishermen.
The top five fish species in terms of production quantity and production value are kapasan
fish, kuniran fish, tembang/jui fish, ikan layang and mackerel. Most fish are sold fresh, but
some are processed or preserved into smoked fish, pindang fish, and salted fish. The number
of fish processing business units in Kabupaten Batang is quite large, reaching 459 business
units with a total workforce of 2,865 people. The investment value in this sector was Rp 5 283
010 000 and the production value was Rp 12 545 200 000 in 2013. The marketing targets of
the fish processing industry are local markets, Bandung, and Jakarta. The Batang Regency
fisheries sector still has great opportunities in developing markets outside the region, both for
the provision of fisheries production facilities, the production of fresh capture fish and
processed fish. Development in this subsector can be an important focus as a foundation for
increasing the regional GRDP of Batang Regency, because the market for processed fish
products is still wide open by reaching markets in various other regions.
The development of capture fisheries agribusiness is strongly influenced by various
factors, both internal and external factors. Internal factors relate to the weaknesses and
strengths of the region concerned. Meanwhile, external factors consist of opportunities and
threats that come from the external environment. Internal and external problems become
obstacles in the development of capture fisheries agribusiness in Batang Regency. Based on
the Strategic Plan of the Batang Regency Marine, Fisheries and Livestock Service Office
2017-2022, the constraints and problems that become strategic issues are:
1. The number of marine and fisheries facilities and infrastructure is inadequate;
2. Decreased quality of waters/marine environment due to disasters (abrasion, sedimentation
and accretion);
3. The implementation of regulations banning the use of environmentally unfriendly fishing
gear (cantrang) used by the majority of Batang fishermen;
4. Cluster-based agribusiness development has not been optimally implemented;
5. The farther away the fishing grounds are;
6. There is still the use of harmful food additives in fishery products;
7. The level of fish consumption in Batang district is still low;
Capture fisheries agribusiness is an integrated and interrelated system in each of its
subsystems from upstream to downstream, so if there is a problem in one of the subsystems, it
will result in other subsystems. Making the capture fisheries subsector a unit in an
agribusiness system consisting of various subsystems is one of the basic keys to the
development of this subsector. Meanwhile, uniting and collaborating the existing internal and
external factors is one of the key solutions to create a strategy for the development of capture
fisheries agribusiness. Therefore, the formulation of the problem to be discussed is:
1. What is the condition of the capture fisheries agribusiness system in the North Coast Area,
Batang Regency, Central Java?
2. What is the formulation of strategies that can be used to develop capture fisheries agribusiness
in the North Coast Area, Batang Regency, Central Java?
Capture Fisheries Agribusiness
Fisheries agribusiness is an integrated system consisting of four subsystems, namely the
fisheries production facilities supply subsystem, the production activities subsystem, the
fisheries product processing and marketing subsystem, and the support subsystem. The
fisheries production facility provider subsystem is in the form of providing vessels for sailing,
fishing nets, fuel, and others. In the production subsystem, it is in the form of fishing process
activities at sea. The upstream agribusiness subsystem means the processing of fish products,
such as making processed smoked fish, canned fish, salted fish, processed seafood restaurants,
and also includes the marketing process of fishery products. Supporting subsystems in capture
fisheries agribusiness can be in the form of banking institutions as a source of capital lending,
the Marine and Fisheries Service, fisheries sector extension workers, savings and loan
cooperatives, and so on. There are several previous studies that examined regional capture
fisheries agribusiness, namely Milasari (2004); Hajar and Marif (2013); Malik and Supratikno
(2000). The three studies provide a description of the various subsystems in capture fisheries
agribusiness.
Milasari (2004) in her paper Integrated Capture Fisheries-Based Regional Development
Planning in Tanjung Mutiara Sub-district, Agam Regency, West Sumatra Province, which
divides the discussion into five aspects in accordance with the subsystems in agribusiness,
namely fisheries production facilities and infrastructure, capture units, processing, distribution
and marketing, and institutional aspects. Production facilities used are shipyards, fuel, clean
water, ice, and provision of fishing gear. Fisheries production is carried out by sailing at sea to
catch fish. Fishermen provide post-capture handling in the form of icing the fish to maintain
the freshness of the product until it reaches consumers. In addition, some of the fish produced
is processed into certain products to increase the selling value. The distribution and marketing
of products in Tanjung Mutiara is quite large. The marketing channel starts from the
fishermen as producers and then distributed to consumers through middlemen, agents, retail
traders, and/or others. Some products have been exported to foreign countries such as
Malaysia and Singapore. The institutional aspect aims to provide guidance and support
various business activities in capture fisheries agribusiness. Guidance related to the
development of capture fisheries in Tanjung Mutiara Sub-district is provided by the
Livestock, Fisheries and Marine Service Office of Agam Regency, PPI Tiku KUD Mina Pasir
Tiku, Agricultural Extension Center, and NGO Gema Nusa.
Hajar and Ma'rif (2013) then conducted research on the development pattern of coastal
fisheries agribusiness in Bonang District, Demak Regency. The study found that the
availability of diesel fuel is the most important factor in the procurement and distribution of
fisheries production facilities. Primary production activities in the coastal area of Bonang
Subdistrict are seen from the potential of capture fisheries products in the coastal area of
Bonang Subdistrict evenly including pomfret, mackerel, shrimp, crab, layur fish, and various
other types of fish. Primary production activities in fisheries agribusiness are not only in
capture fisheries but also aquaculture fisheries production activities which have cultured
commodities in the form of vaname shrimp, tiger shrimp, and milkfish. Processing products
found in the coastal area of Bonang Sub-district as a whole are usually dried fish/salted fish,
fish/shrimp crackers, presto milkfish, and shrimp paste as a result of processing fishery
products. Marketing has reached the local Bonang market, within and outside the regency. In
marketing activities, middlemen still play a very important role. Middlemen market fishery
products both locally and outside the region.
Meanwhile, Malik and Supratikno (2000) presented a flow chart of marine fish
marketing in Takalar District involving fishermen, fish auctions, traditional fish processing
and local markets. This shows that marine fish marketing in the region is still relatively
simple and traditional. Malik and Supratikno (2000) then developed marine fish marketing by
involving export markets and marine fish processing factories/industries. This is in
accordance with the findings of Milasari (2004) who described the marketing channels of
capture fisheries in Tanjung Mutiara Sub-district, Agama District, West Sumatra, which are
more modern. In the process of marketing fishery products, Tanjung Mutiara sub-district
involves fishermen, middlemen, fish processors, agents and exporters.
Based on these three studies, it can be seen that the availability of diesel fuel is one of
the most important factors in capture fisheries business activities. Marketing of fresh fishery
products not only reaches regional areas, but also outside the region, even abroad for certain
areas. The marketing path of fishery products in general is from fishermen, through
middlemen or transactions at fish auctions, fish processors, agents, retailers, to exporters, to
then reach the final consumer. Strong integration of various capture fisheries agribusiness
subsystems from upstream to downstream is very important, because they are interrelated and
will be hampered if one of the subsystems has a problem.
Strategy for Development of Capture Fisheries Agribusiness
Each region has its own potential and distinctiveness to support increased regional
economic growth. Agribusiness development strategies are part of the process to improve the
welfare of local communities. However, fisheries and marine development in Indonesia still
faces many problems. Problems that hinder fisheries and marine development consist of
internal and external factors. There are several previous studies that discuss internal and
external factors related to problems in the fisheries and marine sector, as well as various
formulations of strategies proposed to overcome these problems.
Research by Riyadi (2004) stated that some of the problems that hinder the development
of fisheries and marine consist of internal and external factors. Problems based on internal
factors are: Most fishermen are traditional fishermen with socio-cultural characteristics that
are not conducive to business progress; most of the fleet structures owned are still dominated
by small-scale and traditional structures (low technology); inequality in the level of utilization
of fish stocks between one region and another; there are still many illegal, unregulated and
unreported fishing practices; law enforcement is still weak; environmental damage to marine
ecosystems caused by bombing and sand mining; limited social and economic infrastructure
(transportation, communication, health, education and housing); and weak market intelligence
which includes mastery of information about market segments, prices and competitors.
Meanwhile, external factors that influence the slow development of marine and fisheries are
particularly those related to monetary, fiscal and investment policies, such as loan interest
rates and the provision of fisheries credit.
Identification of problems and analysis of what internal and external factors affect the
development of capture fisheries agribusiness become the basis for formulating the right
strategy. Identification and analysis are generally conducted on 4 aspects of development
sources, namely economic aspects, social aspects, environmental/ecological aspects, and
institutional aspects. This was adjusted to the statement of the Ministry of National
Development Planning/Bapennas (2014) and Wahdaniyah et al. (2018). The Ministry of
PPN/Bapennas outlined 8 problems in 4 aspects of the study (economic aspects, social
aspects, environmental/ecological aspects, and institutional aspects) related to the condition of
capture fisheries management. Conditions in the economic aspect are related to the low
competitiveness of capture fisheries products, the lack of domestic market development for
capture fisheries products and fish quality security, and limited access to capital for the
development of capture fisheries businesses. Meanwhile, the social aspect is related to the
problem of the low quality of most fishermen. Conditions in the environmental/ecological
aspect are related to illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing activities, and over
fishing in coastal waters. And conditions in the institutional aspect are related to the weak
capacity of supervisory and law enforcement institutions, and the capture fisheries data
collection system that is still not reliable and still partial.
Based on previous research that has been conducted, it can be concluded that in general,
problems in the capture fisheries sector are caused by internal and external factors. Problems
based on internal factors are: There are still quite a number of fishermen who catch fish
traditionally; most of the fishing fleet is still small and medium scale; the use of technology is
relatively low; fishing gear that is not environmentally friendly; there are still many illegal,
unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing activities; to the still weak role of supporting
institutions in the capture fisheries sector capture fisheries sector. Meanwhile, problems based
on external factors are related to fluctuations in loan interest rates and the exchange rate of the
rupiah against the US dollar.
After identifying problems and analyzing internal and external factors, the next step is
to formulate strategies through SWOT analysis. This strategy analysis tool was chosen on the
basis that SWOT can provide the formulation of appropriate alternative strategies based on
the collaboration of weaknesses, strengths, opportunities, and threats for the regional fisheries
agribusiness environment. This is in accordance with the research studies of Daud et al.
(2009); Irawan (2010); and Milasari (2004) who formulated development strategies through
SWOT analysis as a result of identification of internal and external factors related to capture
fisheries agribusiness in Tanjung Mutiara Sub-district, Agam Regency, West Sumatra
Province. SWOT analysis was conducted by determining strategies based on the analysis of
strength-opportunity (S-O), weakness-opportunity (W-O), strength-threat (S-T), and
weakness-threat (W-T).
The results of strategy formulation through SWOT analysis according to Daud et al.
(2009) resulted in nine capture fisheries policy directions, namely (policies in order of
priority): Development of capture fisheries by adding fleets and fishing equipment; increasing
outside investment to improve small-scale fisheries businesses; strengthening local fleets;
maximizing the potential of existing fisheries; development of catch processing; socialization
of environmentally friendly fisheries; providing cold storage, ice factories, and procurement
of appropriate technology to maintain fish quality; and development of fishing technology;
and education and training on sustainable fisheries business management. This is in line with
Rosalina (2011) in her writing on the analysis of pelagic fisheries development strategies in
Banyuasin Regency, South Sumatra, namely: Optimization of pelagic fisheries business;
development of pelagic fisheries business in the 6-10 nautical mile route; improvement of
pelagic fisheries business management; increasing the business scale of pelagic fishing fleet;
and improvement of fisheries facilities and infrastructure.
Meanwhile, the results of the formulation of SWOT strategies according to Milasari
(2004) based on SO strategies, namely developing a legal system for coastal areas; and
increasing the utilization of fishery resources in territorial waters by improving gillnet
technology. The formulation of the ST strategy, namely by closing the fishing area within the
3-mile area that has been over fishing. Meanwhile, the WO strategy is through the
development of port facilities and infrastructure; development of environmentally friendly
handling and processing processes; integrated marketing development; provision of accurate
data; strengthening formal and informal institutions for fisheries processing; and increasing
human resources of both apparatus and fishermen. And for the formulation of WT strategies
are in the form of spatial mapping of capture fisheries; enforcement of the monitoring and
evaluation system; and improvement of mangroves and coral reefs. The results of the
formulation are generally in line with Irawan (2010), especially related to improving the
facilities and infrastructure of the fisheries sector.
Based on strategy formulation through SWOT analysis conducted by Daud et al.
(2009); Irawan (2010); and Milasari (2004) broadly indicate that revamping and improving
the fishing fleet, and fisheries infrastructure are key in the fisheries development strategy
regional capture. Strong integration and cooperation of various stakeholders in the capture
fisheries sector is also another important key. Strong integration of various subsystems will
have a positive impact on the development of regional and national capture fisheries
agribusiness through increased efficiency and effectiveness in conducting fisheries business
activities. This is in accordance with the suggestion of Riyadi (2004) who formulated several
alternative general strategies for the development of the fisheries and marine sector, through
increased stakeholder participation; improvement of supporting facilities consisting of
physical facilities, institutions consisting of financial institutions, insurance, NGOs, marketing
institutions, associations and supporting legislation in the management of marine resources
and fisheries; conducting further strategic steps such as distribution, marketing, availability of
seeds and broodstock and anticipation of damage to ecosystems and marine biota; and clear
and firm law enforcement for members of stakeholders who violate the rules that have been
established and agreed upon together.
Strategy formulation is conducted to determine what policy direction will be taken to
develop capture fisheries agribusiness. The determination of this policy needs to consider
several aspects of sustainable development, namely economic aspects, social aspects,
technical aspects, and aspects of environmental friendliness. These four aspects need to be
considered with the aim of achieving agribusiness development based on sustainable
development. This is in line with Wahdaniyah et al. (2018) which states that coastal and
marine resource management policies need to be based on or consider four
aspects/dimensions of sustainable development, namely biological aspects, technical aspects,
social aspects, economic aspects and environmental friendliness. The development strategy in
the development of the marine and fisheries sector in the southern SWP (Development Area
Unit) of South Sulawesi Province is a regional and economic-based marine and fisheries
sector development strategy. This development can be done by increasing fisheries production
(aquaculture and capture fisheries), improving marine services (TPI, PPI, fishing industry,
port), marine tourism, and supporting facilities and infrastructure.
Theoretical Framework of the Capture Fisheries Agribusiness Concept
Agribusiness is the concept of an integrated system consisting of four subsystems,
namely: up-stream agribusiness subsystem, as an economic activity that produces and trades
primary agricultural production facilities; on farm agribusiness subsystem, as an activity of
primary agricultural production processes; down-stream agribusiness subsystem, which is an
economic activity that processes primary agricultural products into processed products as well as
trading activities; and supporting subsystems, which are providers and facilitators in the
processes of agribusiness activities, such as financial and banking institutions, research and
development, ministries of agriculture, and so on. The system view provides
interconnectedness between one subsystem and another. The performance of each subsystem
will be determined by the other subsystems, so that the handling of agricultural sector
development is no longer just handling the on farm sector, but also through handling off farm
aspects in an integrated manner (Krisnamurthi 2001). Based on this understanding, a good
agribusiness system is a system that is interrelated and supportive in each of its subsystems. If
there is one subsystem that is problematic, it can have a negative impact on other subsystems,
so it will make the existing agribusiness system weak. The linkage of each subsystem in
agribusiness can be divided into forward linkage and backward linkage. Forward linkage is a
linkage that connects a subsystem to the front line, such as in the processing and
distribution/marketing subsystems. Meanwhile, backward linkage connects a subsystem with
raw material suppliers.
In the capture fisheries sector, the concept of agribusiness remains the same, which is an
integration between subsystems that are interrelated and cannot be separated. If one
subsystem has a problem, it will affect the other subsystems. The upstream agribusiness
subsystem in capture fisheries is the provision of vessels for sailing, fishing nets, fuel, and
others. In the on farm subsystem, it is in the form of fishing process activities at sea. The
upstream agribusiness subsystem means the processing of fish products, such as the
manufacture of processed smoked fish, canned fish, salted fish, processed seafood restaurants,
and also includes the marketing process of fishery products. Supporting subsystems in capture
fisheries agribusiness can be in the form of banking institutions as a source of capital loans,
the Department of Marine Affairs and Fisheries, fisheries sector extension workers, savings
and loan cooperatives, and so on.
Fishery products are products that cannot last long without special additional treatment.
Fish smoking, salting, and the manufacture of canned fish products are examples of product
transformation for value addition and preservation. This is a practice of some of the concepts
of capture fisheries agribusiness as a whole. Each subsystem of activities in agribusiness has
its own objectives such as increasing the income of the business actors concerned, but if
integrated as one big concept, the main goal is to improve the welfare of all business actors
involved in agribusiness activities.
Concept of Capture Fisheries Agribusiness Development Strategy
David (1998) defines strategic management as the art and science of formulating,
implementing, and evaluating functional decisions that enable an organization to achieve its
objectives. The focus of strategic management lies in integrating management, marketing,
finance/accounting, production/operations, research and development, and computer
information systems to achieve organizational goals. The strategic management process
consists of three stages, namely, strategy formulation, strategy implementation, and strategy
evaluation. Strategy formulation is in the form of developing a business mission, recognizing
opportunities The organization's external threats and threats, determining the organization's
internal weaknesses and strengths, setting long-term objectives, generating alternative
strategies, and choosing a particular strategy to implement. Strategy implementation requires
the organization to set annual objective views, equip it with policies, allocate resources
appropriately so that the strategy formulation can be implemented.
The development of capture fisheries agribusiness depends on the identification of
internal and external factors. Internal factors consist of the strengths and weaknesses of the
organization. These strengths and weaknesses appear in the management, marketing, finance,
production/operations, research and development, and computer information system activities
of fisheries agribusiness. While external factors consist of opportunities and threats that come
from the environment outside the organization, such as the economic environment, social,
political, government policy, technology, and so on. These external factors provide
competitive tendencies and favorable or unfavorable events in the future. The basic tenet of
strategic management is that organizations need to formulate strategies to take advantage of
existing opportunities and avoid or reduce the impact of external threats (David 1998).
Internal factors in the form of strengths and weaknesses are determined relative to
competitors. Strengths and weaknesses can also be determined relative to the goals the
organization has. Both internal and external factors should be expressed in specific terms to
some extent, using numbers, percentages, dollars and ratios, as well as comparisons over time
and to rival organizations. The more specific the underlying internal and external factors, the
more effectively strategies can be formulated and resources allocated (David and David
2015).
The stages in formulating a strategy consist of the input stage, the matching stage, and
the decision stage. The input stage means that strategy makers need to subjectively calculate
internal and external factors in the early stages of the strategy formulation process. Strategy is
sometimes defined as the mix an organization makes between internal resources and skills and
the opportunities and risks created by external factors. The matching stage of the strategy
formulation framework consists of five techniques that are used in any order, namely: SWOT
matrix, SPACE matrix, BCG matrix, IE matrix, and Grand Strategy matrix. All these tools
depend on the information obtained from the input stage to match external opportunities and
threats with internal strengths and weaknesses.
The final stage is the decision stage in formulating strategies using the Quantitative
Strategic Planning Matrix (QSPM) or Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix. This technique
targets which alternative strategies are the best. QSPM uses inputs from stage 1 analysis and
matches from stage 2 analysis to targetively decide between alternative strategies. This means
that the SWOT matrix, SPACE matrix, BCG matrix, IE matrix, and Grand Strategy matrix
that make up stage 2, provide what is needed to establish the QSPM. QSPM is a tool that
allows strategists to objectively evaluate alternative strategies, based on The critical factors
for external and internal success were recognized earlier. However, in determining the
development strategy of regional capture fisheries agribusiness in this study, only the SWOT
matrix technique will be used. A more complete comprehensive model of strategic
management can be seen in Figure 1 below.
SWOT Matrix Analysis
One strategy that is commonly used in organizations or companies is a strategy based on
the SWOT matrix. The SWOT (Strengths- Weakness-Opportunities-Threats) matrix is an
important matching tool that helps managers develop four types of strategies, namely SO
strategies, WO strategies, ST strategies, and WT strategies. SO strategies or strength-
opportunity strategies use an organization's internal strengths to take advantage of external
opportunities. WO strategies or weakness-opportunity strategies aim to improve weaknesses
by taking advantage of external opportunities. ST strategy or strength-threat strategy uses the
company's strengths to avoid or reduce the impact of external threats. A WT strategy or
weakness-threat strategy is a defensive tactic directed at reducing internal weaknesses and
avoiding environmental threats. The SWOT matrix consists of nine cells. As shown in table 2,
there are four main decisive factor cells, four strategy cells, and one that is left blank. The
four strategy cells labeled SO, WO, ST, and WT are developed after completing the four key
factor cells labeled strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats, the complete SWOT
matrix can be seen in Table 3.
If each factor in the internal and external environment is analyzed and a combination
strategy is created, the SWOT analysis will evolve and result in the following various detailed
strategies, as a result of any combination between the external and internal environment.
Based on the perspectives in the internal and external environment in SWOT analysis, four
strategies can be derived, namely (Hutabarat and Huseini 2012):
a. The maxi-maxi strategy is to maintain strengths to seize opportunities
b. The maxi-mini strategy is to maintain strength to avoid or ward off threats
c. The mini-maxi strategy is to overcome weaknesses to seize opportunities
d. A mini-mini strategy is to address weaknesses to avoid or counteract threats.
Road Map Strategy and Strategic Architecture
The strategies that have been formulated based on the SWOT analysis are then mapped
into a road map strategy that can show the priority of handling one strategy over another. The
road map approach still considers the importance of all strategies that have been formulated
in the previous stages. Priority will be seen in the urgency of handling first. The road map
shows a sequential relationship between one strategy and another. This is to avoid confusion
that causes inefficiency and even failure (ineffectiveness) in the implementation of these
strategies. In certain cases, the sequential relationship between one strategy can lead to a
reciprocal relationship, where the implementation of one strategy is very dependent and vice
versa also greatly affects the implementation of other strategies. The road map will explain
the time-frame for implementing each strategy within a certain period of time.
Strategic architecture is a strategic design drawing that is useful for companies to
formulate their strategies into the canvas of organizational plans to achieve their vision and
mission. According to Yoshida (2004) the preparation of architecture A strategic architecture
consists of core and complementary components. Core components are essential components
that are sufficient conditions for developing strategic architecture. Companion components
are further derivatives of the core components. The technique of drawing a strategic
architecture has no fixed rules that describe the arrangement of strategies. Strategic
architecture drawing is a creative thinking process that combines art with strategic results
obtained from the decision-making stage. Strategic planning with a strategic architecture
approach can be seen in Figure 2.
Based on the above strategic architecture approach, Yoshida (2004) then elaborates on
these elements as follows:
1. Vision and mission of the organization
An organization's vision is a statement of what it wants to achieve in the future. The
organization's mission is a statement about the reason for the organization's existence.
The vision and mission must be clearly stated so that it will not cause the wrong
interpretation in communicating it to all niches of the organization.
2. Internal and external environment analysis
This analysis is a scan of the internal and external factors that affect the current and
future organization. There are several internal environmental analysis tools in order to
obtain an overview of the strengths and weaknesses of the organization, namely
management process analysis, organizational functional performance analysis, key
success factor (KSF) analysis, McKinsey's 7'S analysis, key result area (KRA) analysis,
and Porter's value chain analysis. Meanwhile, the external environment analysis tool is
PEST analysis (political - economic - socio-cultural - technological), porter's 5 forces
analysis (5P Porter), industry turbulence analysis, and analysis
organization's life cycle.
3. Industry foresight (Redefinition of the future industry)
Industry foresight provides an overview of the potential things in the organization to be
developed in the future and enables the organization to take a leadership position. The
development of industry foresight is strongly influenced by factors such as technological
developments, regulations issued and regulatory proposals to be established, regional
demographics (education levels and income levels in particular), and different lifestyles.
4. Organizational challenges
The organizational challenge is the initial plan that the organization needs to prepare,
covering the potential business and the estimated investment required to realize the new
business. The organizational challenge identifies focal points for building organizational
capabilities in the short and medium term. These focal points are typically prioritized on
organizational weaknesses that are closely related to organizational strengths.
5. Organizational goals
Organizational goals are objectives that the organization wants to achieve that have been
quantified properly. For example, with the challenge of international expansion, the goal
set is to enter the world market in connection with the entry into force of the agreement
drawn up by the WTO (World Trade Organization).
All the points that have been presented previously related to the vision and mission of
the organization, internal and external environmental analysis, industry foresight,
organizational challenges, and goals, need to be combined to get a general map of strategies to
be implemented. The strategic architecture that is compiled requires further details in the form
of strategies and policies which are then further derived into the work program of the
organization concerned. As an example, it can be seen in Figure 3 the architecture of the
Cresh ornamental plant business development strategy. In this example, the strategic
architecture is more directed at planning the development of ornamental plant businesses in
the short term, namely 2011-2013, where various challenges faced become important points
in the depiction of the strategic architecture. Each strategic architecture has its own strategy
depiction concept, but the basic components remain the same core of the depiction of each
strategic architecture, which is related to the goals, programs, strategies and policies, as well
as the challenges of the organization/company in the future.
Operational Framework
Capture fisheries agribusiness is an integrated system from upstream to downstream
related to capture fisheries. Agribusiness activities involve providers of fisheries production
facilities, fishermen, fish processors, distributors and marketing actors, as well as supporting
institutions that support the sustainability of capture fisheries business activities. In this
research, the author aims to formulate strategies for the development of capture fisheries
agribusiness in Batang Regency for the short and long term. The first stage of this research
begins with identifying existing problems related to capture fisheries agribusiness in Batang
Regency, Central Java. This problem identification aims to find out how the condition of
capture fisheries agribusiness in the local area is described in agribusiness explanation points
in the upstream, production, and downstream subsystems. This problem identification was
obtained through an interview process with experts in the capture fisheries subsector and
based on direct observation, as well as the study of secondary research results. The next stage
is to identify and analyze the internal and external environment to find out what internal and
external factors affect the development of agribusiness in the capture fisheries sector. This
analysis of the internal and external environment is the basis for knowing the strengths,
weaknesses, opportunities, and threats that are owned so that they can then be formulated into
strategies through SWOT analysis. Furthermore, the results of the SWOT analysis will be
presented in the strategy architecture that will result in the formulation of a strategies for the
short and long term, which was preceded by the creation of a road map strategy as a mapping
process to determine the urgency and timeframe for strategy implementation.
Data Processing and Analysis Methods
The data used is qualitative data, derived from the results of determining the key factors
of capture fisheries agribusiness development. The data were then used to identify and
evaluate what internal and external factors affect the capture fisheries agribusiness system in
Batang Regency, Central Java. Identification of agribusiness conditions, and internal and
external factors become the basis for formulating agribusiness development strategies using
SWOT analysis that can be useful for the short and long term. Internal factors can be
determined relative to the goals an organization has. Identification of internal factors in the
form of organizational strengths and weaknesses related to ownership of natural resources,
human resource management capabilities, production/operation activities, marketing, research
and development, and related to business information systems owned by the organization.
Meanwhile, external factors in the form of opportunities and threats are identified based on
the division of several category areas, namely related to economics, technology, socio-culture,
and politics. Therefore, in this study, the identification of key factors related to capture
fisheries agribusiness in Batang Regency is based on the analysis of four aspects, namely
resource and environmental aspects, economic aspects, technological aspects, and social and
political aspects.
Resource and environmental aspects are aspects related to how the potential of marine
resources and the current condition of the environment. Economic aspect is an aspect related
to the potential and condition of economic factors that weaken or support the community's
economy specifically related to capture fisheries agribusiness. Technological aspects are
aspects related to the status of the use of fishing technology and other technologies that
support capture fisheries agribusiness activities. Meanwhile, social and political aspects are
aspects related to the social conditions of coastal communities and support related to
government regulations/policies. Identification based on these four aspects can be seen in
Table 4.
After obtaining identification information from the key factors described in Table 4
related to the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of capture fisheries
agribusiness in Kabupaten Batang, the elements of SWOT (strengths-weaknesses-
opportunities-threats) are identified and then analyzed to determine the formulation of
strategies for the development of capture fisheries agribusiness in Kabupaten Batang.
SWOT Analysis
SWOT analysis is an analytical tool used to formulate strategies based on the strengths,
weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of a business organization (company/region). This
analysis is a systematic identification of the strengths and weaknesses of the business
organization as well as opportunities and threats from the external environment which can
then produce alternative combinations of the best strategies. After the strengths, If
weaknesses, opportunities and threats are identified, the business organization can determine a
strategy by utilizing its strengths to take advantage of existing opportunities, as well as to
minimize or even overcome its weaknesses to avoid existing threats.
Two Stages of SWOT Analysis:
1. Identify S-W-O-T:
• Based on the analysis of the internal and external environment
• Qualitative and quantitative analysis results
• Base unit of analysis must be determined in advance � stakeholder boundaries internal and
external
2. SWOT matrix: Strategy formulation
Strategy formulation is carried out by grouping internal factors in the form of strengths
and weaknesses as well as external factors in the form of opportunities and threats into
columns and rows and then analyzed to find strategy results from each S-W-O-T
identification point. SWOT strategy analysis produces four types of strategy combinations,
namely S-O (Strength- Opportunity), W-O (Weakness-Opportunity), S-T (Strength-Threat),
and W-T (Weakness-Threat) strategies. The S-O strategy combination results from using the
organization's internal strengths to take advantage of external opportunities. The W- O
strategy combination is generated by improving weaknesses through the utilization of external
opportunities. The combination of S-T strategies is obtained from the use of strength factors
owned by the organization to reduce the impact of external factor threats. While the
combination of W-T strategies is generated by reducing internal weaknesses and avoiding
external environmental threats.
Road Map Strategy
The strategies that have been formulated based on the SWOT analysis are then mapped
into a road map strategy that can show the priority of handling one strategy over another. The
road map approach still considers the importance of all strategies that have been formulated
in the previous stages. Priority will be seen in the urgency of handling first. The road map
strategy shows a sequential relationship between one strategy and another. This is to avoid
confusion that causes inefficiency and even failure (ineffectiveness) in the implementation of
these strategies. In certain cases, the sequential relationship between one strategy can lead to a
reciprocal relationship, where the implementation of one strategy is very dependent and vice
versa also greatly affects the implementation of other strategies. The road map will explain
the time-frame for implementing each strategy within a certain period of time.
Strategy Architecture
Strategic architecture is a strategic design drawing that is useful for companies to
formulate their strategies into a canvas of organizational plans to achieve their vision and
mission. Developing a complete strategic architecture needs to consider the core and
accompanying components (Yoshida 2004). Core components are essential components that
are sufficient conditions for developing a strategic architecture. Companion components are
further derivative of the core components. The technique of drawing a strategic architecture
has no fixed rules that describe the arrangement of strategies. Strategic architecture drawing is
a creative thinking process that combines art with strategic results obtained from the decision-
making stage. The design of the strategic architecture approach that will be used in the final
result of this research can be seen in Figure 5.
Geographical Location and Administrative Boundaries of Batang Regency
Batang Regency is located between 60 51' 46" and 70 11' 47" south latitude and between 1090
40' 19" and 1100 03' 06" east longitude. Batang Regency is located on the north coast of Java
Island. Batang Regency stretches from the coastal area to the highlands approaching the
Dieng region. Batang Regency stretches from the coastal area including the sub-districts of
Batang, Kandeman, Tulis, Subah, and Gringsing, to the sub-districts located along the
highlands, namely the sub-districts of Bawang, Reban, and Blado. Based on elevation (height
from sea level), the plains in Batang Regency consist of:
•
0 m - 100 m = 33.33 percent
•
101 m - 500 m = 46.67 percent
•
501 m -1000 m = 20 percent.
The total area of Batang Regency is 78 864.16 hectares. The area consists of 22 003.80
hectares (27.91 percent) of paddy fields and 56 860.36 hectares (72.09 percent) of non paddy
fields. Meanwhile, Batang Regency has a coastline of 38.75 km long and 4 miles wide, so the
sea area is 287.06 km2 . Batang Regency has the following administrative boundaries:
•
North : Java Sea
•
East : Kendal Regency
•
South : Wonosobo and Banjarnegara regencies
Potential Resources and Total Production of Capture Fisheries
Batang Regency is a coastal area directly adjacent to the Java Sea in the north.
Therefore, Batang Regency is known as an area that is part of the north coast (Pantura) area of
Central Java. Most of the capture fisheries production in Batang is produced from the Java
Sea to Natuna. The potential of the Central Java Pantura waters in the Java Sea is known to
reach around 796 640 tons/year. Meanwhile, capture fisheries production in Batang Regency
tended to experience an increasing trend from 2004-2013, although at some times it
fluctuated. This can be seen in Table 5 below.
Based on Table 5, it can be seen that the total production of capture fisheries in
Kabupaten Batang in 2010 was in the range of 27 thousand to 32 thousand tons. This number
increased dramatically from 2009 which was only in the range of 18 thousand tons.
Meanwhile, the latest data according to BPS Central Java (2017) in 2014 the amount of
Batang capture fisheries production reached 27 974 811 tons.
kilogram with a production value of Rp 206 165 572 000 and in 2015 was
30 444 433 kilograms with a production value of Rp 169 188 484 000. This amount of
production makes Kabupaten Batang one of the largest producers of capture fish in Central
Java, in the range of second or third place. For comparison, data on the value and amount of
marine fisheries production sold at TPIs in regencies/cities in Central Java in 2014-2015 can
be seen in Appendix 1.
Human Resources of Capture Fisheries Subsector
According to BPS data (2018), the population of Batang Regency in 2017 reached 756
079 people with a composition of 377 492 male residents and 378 587 female residents.
Meanwhile, based on data from the Batang Regency Marine, Fisheries and Livestock Service
Office, the number of human resources engaged in the marine and fisheries sector is 14 924
people, consisting of 11 745 fishermen, 1 088 processors and marketers of fishery products,
and around 2 091 people. This shows that around 12,000 people depend on the capture
fisheries sector or around 1.5 percent of the total population of Kabupaten Batang. This
number is likely to increase in line with the increasing demand for fishery products and the
bright prospects for fishery product processing businesses.
Capture Fisheries Subsector Facilities and Infrastructure
The facilities available in fishing activities in Kabupaten Batang consist of fishing fleets
and fishing gear. Meanwhile, the main supporting infrastructure for fishing activities in
Batang Regency is are Coastal Fishing Ports (PPPs) and Fish Landing Bases (PPIs), followed
by Fish Auction facilities (TPIs), boat docks, refueling stations, ice factories, and so on.
Fishing Fleet
The main fishing fleets used by Batang fishermen are outboard motorboats and
motorboats. The size of fishing vessels can be divided into four, namely vessels of 0-10 GT,
10-30 GT, 30-100 GT, and vessels of 100 GT and above. According to Dislutkanak, out of
12,000 fishermen (boat owners and crew members), 2,000 are small-scale fishermen. Most of
the fishing fleet is obtained from the production of the Batang shipyard industry. The price of
a 0-10 GT fishing boat is in the range of Rp 30 million to Rp 40 million, and if fishing
engines and other equipment are added, it becomes around Rp 60 million. For vessels of 10-
30 GT, the price is in the range of Rp 400 million and becomes around Rp 1 billion if added
with fishing machines and other equipment. And for large vessels measuring 30-100 GT is in
the price range of Rp 5 billion to Rp 7 billion, if added with fishing machines and other
equipment it will be Rp 10 billion.
According to BPS (2018) collected from the Batang Regency Dislutkanak, the total
number of fishing vessel ownership in 2017 was 832 vessels consisting of 696 outboard
motorboats and 136 motorboats. This number of ownership has increased since 2015.
Meanwhile, the number of fishing vessel ownerships in Batang Regency from 2015-2017 can
be seen in Table 6.
Fishing Tools
The types of fishing gear commonly used by the Batang community are seine net,
oceanic gillnet, umbrella net, trammel nets, one boat operated purse seine, and set long lines.
Of the various kinds of fishing gear, cantrang is the most widely used fishing gear because it
can produce quite abundant catch fish, although on the other hand this fishing gear is
considered environmentally unfriendly and its use is prohibited. The following are various
images and descriptions of the types of fishing gear commonly used by the Batang
community, based on the Minister of KP RI Regulation Number 71/PERMEN-KP/2016
concerning Fishing Lines and Placement of Fishing Gear in the State Fisheries Management
Area of the Republic of Indonesia and Decree of the Minister of KP RI Number
KEP.06/MEN/2010 concerning Fishing Gear in the State Fisheries Management Area of the
Republic of Indonesia.
1. Trawl fishing gear
The cantrang fishing gear has the code name SV-CTG, 02.2.0.2. This fishing gear has
been banned for all types of vessels in all fishing waters based on KP Regulation Number
2/Permen-KP/2015. This is because cantrang fishing gear is considered not selective and
environmentally friendly in its use. However, the ban on the use of cantrang fishing gear has
still received leeway since mid-January 2018 until an undetermined time during the transition
period to more environmentally friendly fishing gear. Fishermen are allowed to use this
fishing gear again with various requirements and permits that must be renewed every year.
2. Oceanic gillnet gear
The oceanic gillnet has the codename GND-OC, 0.2.0.1. This fishing gear is
categorized as a gillnet. The use of this gear is only permitted on vessels of 30 GT and above
in fishing area III, which is 12 miles and above.
3. Lined gillnet gear (trammel nets)
The layered gillnet gear has the code name GTR, 07. 5. 0. This gear can be divided into
klitik nets and combined gillnets-trammel nets. Clitic nets can be used on vessels of 0-10 GT
in fishing areas IA (0-2 miles) and IB (2-4 miles).
4. Seine fishing gear
The seine gear has the codename SV-PYG, 02.2.0.1. This fishing gear falls into the
category of seine nets. Seine nets are permitted to be operated using vessels of 5-10 GT in
waters of 2 miles and above.
5. Single-vessel purse seine gear
This gear is divided into small pelagic purse seine with one vessel (PSI-K, 01.1.1.1) and
large pelagic purse seine with one vessel (PSI-B, 01.1.1.2). Given the area and the catch of
small pelagic fish, most Batang fishermen use small pelagic purse seines. This gear has 3
types of selective sizes and fishing gear (API) capacities that can be used with vessels of 0-5
GT, 5-10 GT, 10-30 GT, and >30 GT in water areas IA (0-2 miles), IB (2-4 miles), II (4-12
miles), and III (>12 miles), depending on the size and capacity.
6. Basic longline gear (set long lines)
The basic longline gear (set long lines) has the code name LLS, 09.3.0. This fishing
gear has 3 kinds of selective sizes and API capacities, which can be used on vessel sizes 0-5
GT, 5-10 GT, 10-30 GT, >30 GT in water areas IA (0-2 miles), IB (2-4 miles), II (4-12 miles),
and III (>12 miles), depending on the size and capacity.
Fishing Port
The general definition of a fishing port based on Law No. 45/2009 is a place consisting
of land and surrounding waters with certain boundaries as a place of government activities
and fisheries business system activities used as a place for fishing vessels to lean, anchor,
and/or load and unload fish equipped with shipping safety facilities and fisheries support
activities. Fishing ports in Indonesia are classified into four types, namely Ocean Fishing
Ports (PPS), Archipelago Fishing Ports (PPN), Coastal Fishing Ports (PPP), and Fish Landing
Bases (PPI). In this case, Batang Regency has coastal fishing port (PPP) and fish landing base
(PPI) infrastructure, which includes fish auction facilities (TPI).
Coastal Fishing Port
The coastal fishing port in Batang Regency is known as PPP Klidang Lor. This port is
located on Jl. Yos Sudarso, Karangasem Utara Village, Batang District, Batang Regency. PPP
Klidang Lor is the only coastal fishing port in Batang Regency. This fishing port is used to
support all fishing activities from pre- to post-capture in Batang Regency. Basically, PPP
Klidang Lor is the main center of fishing and supporting activities in Batang Regency. PPP
Klidang Lor has basic facilities, functional facilities, and supporting facilities.
The main facilities consist of: 6500 m of land2 ; 300 m long jetty (Pemprov. 100 m and
Kabupaten 200 m); jetty (Pemprov. 350 m right2 and 375 m left2 ); harbor pond (Pemprov: 3
252 m2 and Kabupaten 11 747 m2 ) with a pool depth of 1.5 m - 2 m; shipping channel
(Sambong River Estuary 70 m x 250 m); complex road (Kabupaten, 2 593 m2 ); and wave
barrier/breakwater of 354 m2 . Functional facilities consist of: Fish auction sites (PI Klidang
Lor 1 and TPI Klidang Lor 2); 1 unit telephone; internet 1 unit; 1 beacon light; 250 m
surveillance tower/PSDKP Satker office2 ; clean water/artificial wells (Pemprov. 1 unit and
Kabupaten 2 units); fuel installation (1 unit of SPBN AKR and 2 units of SPBN Pertamina);
ice factory as many as 2 units; electricity installation (Pemprov. 6,000 watts and 9,000 watts);
3 units of dock/slipway; 5 units of workshop; 6 units of net repair station; fishery product
handling and processing station (Pemprov. 160 m2 and Kabupaten 240 m2 ); integrated service
post (Pemprov. 160 m2 ); 3 units of banking (BKK Klidang Lor, Bank Jateng, and BRI
Klidang Lor unit); 1 unit of wastewater treatment plant (IPAL); and 3 units of temporary
disposal site. Meanwhile, supporting facilities consist of: Fishermen's meeting hall covering
an area of 318 m2 ; place of worship covering an area of 155 m2 ; MCK (Pemprov. 16 m2 and
Regency 16 m2 ); shops as many as 8 units; and guard posts as many as 2 units. Some of these
facilities are still being used in good condition, but some are not running well.
Fish Landing Base
The Fish Landing Base (PPI) is the last class of fishing port. Batang Regency has three
PPIs, namely PPI Roban, PPI Celong, and PPI Seklayu. PPI Roban is located in Subah
Subdistrict, while PPI Celong is located in Banyuputih Subdistrict, and PPI Seklayu is located
in Gringsing Subdistrict. In more detail, the following are the PPIs in Batang:
1. PPI Roban
Roban Fish Landing Base is located in two locations, namely Dukuh Roban Barat,
Kedungsegog Village, Tulis Sub-district and Dukuh Roban Timur, Sengon Village, Subah
Sub-district. This PPI has basic facilities, functional facilities, and supporting facilities. The
main facilities are a 200-meter-long pier and 6000 m of land2 . The functional facilities are
fish auction site (TPI Roban Barat covering an area of 1200 m2 and TPI Roban Timur
covering an area of 850 m2 ), surveillance post of PSDKP Satker covering an area of 450 m2 ,
clean water (wells) of 2 units, electricity installation (900 watts), dock/slipway, 3 workshop
units, and 4 net repair units. Meanwhile, the supporting facilities owned are 3 units of shops.
The facilities owned by PPI Roban are partly in good condition and partly not good.
2. PPI Celong
Celong Fish Landing Site is located in Kedawung Village, Banyuputih Subdistrict. The
facilities owned by this PPI are divided into basic, functional and supporting facilities. The
main facilities consist of 6000 m of land2 and 400 m of breakwater2 . Functional facilities
consist of fish auction site (TPI), radio post (250 m2 ), clean water (well) of 1 unit, electricity
installation (900 watts), dock/slipway, workshop of 3 units, and net repair place of 4 units.
Meanwhile, the supporting facilities owned are 3 units of shops. Some of these facilities are
still in good condition, but some are in poor condition.
3. PPI Seklayu
Seklayu Fish Landing Base is located in Sidorejo Village, Gringsing Sub-district. The
facilities provided by this PPI are divided into basic, functional, and supporting facilities. The
main facilities consist of 4000 m of land2 and 300 m of breakwater2 . Functional facilities
consist of a fish auction site (TPI), a 250 m radio station2 , 1 unit of clean water (well),
electricity installation (900 watts), 2 units of workshop, and three units of net repair.
Meanwhile, the available supporting facilities are two units of shops. Some of these facilities
are still in good condition, while others are in poor condition.
Fish Auction Place (TPI)
Batang Regency has six TPIs spread across five coastal sub-districts of Batang
Regency. A number of these TPIs are part of the facilities of the existing fisheries ports (PPP
and PPI) in Batang. Most of the centers of capture fisheries activities are located around TPIs.
This fish auction place is used as a transaction and buying and selling place for fresh sea fish
caught by fishermen. Transactions at the TPI are conducted twice a day, at two in the morning
until dawn and at seven in the morning until the end of the day. Different auction times mean
different types of fish are sold. TPIs in Batang Regency are currently utilized quite well. A
total of six TPIs scattered in almost every coastal sub-district are used according to their
operational needs and purposes. However, the facilities provided in each TPI are still
relatively limited. The following is a list of TPIs in Batang Regency that are actively utilized:
1. TPI Klidang Lor 1
TPI Klidang Lor 1 is located in Karangasem Utara Village, Batang Subdistrict, with an
area of 1 575 m2 . This TPI is still located in Batang Beach Fishing Port area. Activities and
transactions in this TPI run quite well. TPI Klidang Lor 1 is the biggest TPI compared to the
other five TPIs, because this TPI has a strategic location close to the anchorage of fishing
vessels above 30 GT. Since it is part of the Klidang Lor PPP, the facilities available at the
PPP are also facilities that can be used at this TPI. Some of the existing facilities are still in
good condition, but others are not in good condition.
2. TPI Klidang Lor 2
Klidang Lor 2 fish auction site is located adjacent to Klidang Lor 1 TPI which is located
in Karangasem Utara Village, Batang Subdistrict, with an area of 525 m2 . This TPI is also
part of the Klidang Lor PPP facility. Therefore, fisheries business actors who come to this TPI
can also use facilities provided by Klidang Lor PPP. The existing facilities are partly in good
condition and partly in poor condition.
3. TPI Roban Timur
Roban Timur fish auction is located in Dukuh Roban Timur, Sengon Village, Subah
Subdistrict, with an area of 850 m2 . This TPI is a part of PPI Roban facility, so the facilities
in PPI Roban can be used by fisheries business actors who come to this TPI. TPI Roban
Timur is the center of fishing activities for fishermen operating in fishing lines I and II with
vessels <30 GT (Dislutkanak 2014).
Refueling Station
Fuel is one of the most important inputs in preparation for fishing activities. Batang
Regency has three refueling stations for fishing vessels, namely SPBB KUD Ngupoyo Mino
in Klidang Lor, SPBN Sigandu, and AKR Mitra Nelayan in Karangasem. Each fisherman has
their own rations and quotas when going on a voyage based on monthly (Pertamina) and
annual (AKR) quotas. In the process of obtaining fuel, coordination is needed to fulfill the
demand of fishermen. Based on 2018 sales report data, SPBB KUD Ngupoyo Mino prepared
a fuel quota of 1 384 000 liters with sales of 1 371 530 liters. Meanwhile, SPBN Sigandu has
prepared around 5 432 000 liters with total sales of 3 642 101 liters in 2018. In the same year,
AKR Mitra Nelayan prepared a quota of 1 272 000 liters with total sales of 1 276 983 liters
(Dislutkanak Batang 2019). In more detail, data on fuel distribution for fishermen in 2018 can
be seen in Table 7.
Based on the data on fuel distribution for fishermen in Table 7, it can be seen that
fishermen in Batang Regency did not experience difficulties in obtaining fuel in 2018,
because every month the availability of fuel for fishermen is limited fuel always exceeds the
amount of sales. The total fuel supply for fishermen in 2018 was 8,088,000 liters with the
following amounts
sales of 6 290 614 liters..
Ice Factory
Ice factories are a very important part of capture fisheries agribusiness, providing ice
to keep fish fresh after production. The number of ice factories on the Batang coast is
considered sufficient. Currently, the main ice factories that supply fishers are around Sigandu
beach with two ice factories and in Karangasem with three ice factories. The need for block
ice for each fisherman varies depending on the size of the boat. Based on data on the
distribution of fishermen's supplies for the July-December 2016 period, the amount of block
ice used by fishermen can be seen in Table 8.
Based on the data in Table 8, there is a large difference in the amount of block ice
distribution between the location of the fishing port in Klidang Lor and other fishing port
locations. This can be because Klidang Lor is the center of capture fisheries agribusiness
activities in Batang Regency which already has a coastal fishing port class.
Fisherman's Supplies
Supplies are very important to prepare before fishermen go to sea. The types of supplies
that need to be prepared are block ice, diesel, oil, gasoline, gas, water, salt, and personal
supplies. Most of the supplies can be obtained around the Batang Fishing Port. The following
regarding the distribution of supplies at each fishing port in Batang in the July-December
2016 period can be seen in Table 9.
Based on the data in Table 9, it shows that the distribution of fishermen's supplies at
PPP Klidang Lor is the largest compared to other fishing ports. This is because PPP Klidang
Lor is the largest fishing port in Batang and is the center of capture fisheries agribusiness
activities in Batang Regency.
Top Commodities of Capture Fishery Products
The type of fisheries produced from the north coast of Java is a combination of small
pelagic and demersal fisheries. Pelagic fish is a type of fish that lives at a depth of 0-200
meters below sea level. Pelagic fish can be divided into large pelagic fish and small pelagic
fish. Examples of large pelagic fish are tuna, marlin, and mackerel. Examples of small pelagic
fish are tuna and lemuru. Meanwhile, demersal fish are fish that live on the seabed, either to
feed or to spawn. The environment where demersal fish live is generally mud, sand and rocks.
Examples of demersal fish are snapper, grouper, and pomfret.1
Based on the 2017 catch statistics data obtained from the Department of Fisheries, the
types of fish produced by Batang Regency fishermen reached more than 30. The most
produced fish species are tembang, kapasan, kuniran, mackerel, and kangaroo. A more
complete list of fish species produced by Batang Regency can be seen in Table 10.
Marketing of Capture Fisheries Products
Captured fishery products in Kabupaten Batang can be divided into fresh fish products
and processed fish products. Fresh fish products are fish products that are sold raw without
being processed first. Meanwhile, processed fish products mean fish products that have
undergone processing with various treatments depending on the type of processed fish to be
made. Most processed fish products in Batang are still made on a household scale. Examples
of processed fish products from Batang Regency are salted fish, pindang fish, smoked fish,
otak-otak, fish nuggets, fish balls, and mackerel pempek. Pindang and smoked fish products
are the most widely produced processed products. These products are easily found in
traditional markets. Both types of processed fish are favorite products of the Batang
community to be reprocessed into dishes as side dishes for daily meals.
Both types of fish products have slightly different marketing channels. The difference
lies in the presence or absence of fish processors in the marketing channel. Based on the
analysis of interviews and observations, fishery products in Batang Regency can be
categorized into four types of marketing channels, namely marketing channel I, marketing
channel II, marketing channel III, and marketing channel IV.
Marketing Channel I
In marketing channel type I, the marketing of capture fisheries products involves
fishermen, collectors, baskets/fish traders, and end consumers. Products sold in this channel
are fresh fish. In this type of marketing channel I allows fishermen to sell their catch through
collectors first, then baskets/fish traders or directly to baskets/fish traders to then reach the
end consumer
Marketing Channel II
Type II marketing channels for capture fisheries products involve fishermen, collectors,
bidders/fish traders, and end consumers. Products sold in channel type II are processed fish
products. End consumers can obtain products directly from processors or through fish
collectors/traders. Meanwhile, a chart of marketing channel II can be seen in Figure 8.
Marketing Channel III
In marketing channel III, the final products sold are also processed fish products, but this
channel only involves fishermen, fish collectors/traders, and end consumers. The processed
fish products produced in channel III are the result of the processing of the fishermen's
households (RTN) themselves. The purpose of self-processing by RTN is not only to increase
the added value of fish product sales, but also to preserve the caught fish. The marketing
channel II chart can be seen in Figure 9.
Condition of Capture Fisheries Agribusiness System in Batang Regency
Capture fisheries agribusiness is an integrated system of four subsystems that are
interrelated and supportive. Subsystems in capture fisheries agribusiness consist of the
fisheries production facilities provider subsystem, the production subsystem, the fisheries
product processing and marketing subsystem (post-production), and the support subsystem.
The capture fisheries agribusiness in Kabupaten Batang is composed of these four subsystems
that are interrelated with each other. In general, the condition of the capture fisheries
agribusiness system in Kabupaten Batang is quite good where each subsystem is interrelated
and supports one another, although there are still many constraints and problems that occur in
each subsystem. An overview of the relationship between the various subsystems in the capture
fisheries agribusiness can be seen in Figure 25 below.
The subsystem for the provision of fisheries production facilities in the Regency
consists of fishing fleets in the form of boats and fishing gear, fishing ports including TPIs
(fish auction sites), docks, refueling stations, and ice factories. In general, the subsystem for
the provision of fisheries production facilities in Batang Regency is in fairly good condition,
although there are still many shortcomings and constraints. Based on available data and the
results of interviews, the provision of fuel and other fishermen's supplies (ice blocks, salt,
etc.) is quite well available and there is no significant scarcity. For the provision of fishing
port facilities, which are divided into classes of coastal fishing ports (PPPs) and fish landing
bases (PPIs) in Kabupaten Batang, they function quite well, although there are still many
shortcomings. Meanwhile, for the fishing fleet, there are no significant problems related to the
provision of boats and fishing gear, but problems related to the use of fishing gear that is not
environmentally friendly by most Batang fishermen is still a major issue until now.
The capture fisheries production subsystem is generally in good condition. The
constraints and problems that often occur in this subsystem are related to uncertain weather
and climate. In production activities, fishermen sail to catch fish regularly depending on the
weather and climate. The types of fisheries produced by Batang fishermen are small pelagic
and demersal fish. The production subsystem becomes the base of the next subsystem, namely
the processing and marketing subsystem of fishery products. If the weather and climate are
good, fish will be available in the market and there is no problem with the processing and
marketing subsystem. However, on the contrary, if the weather and climate are bad, fishermen
cannot sail so that fish becomes scarce in the market. Based on this, the production and post-
production subsystems (fisheries product processing and marketing) are interrelated and
dependent on each other. The processing and marketing subsystem is also running quite well,
although there are still shortcomings and limitations in its implementation. The quality and
processing of fishery products are still traditional, while marketing activities are still limited
by the ability of fishery business actors.
The supporting subsystem consists of various institutions that support and provide
various facilities and infrastructure for fisheries business actors. Supporting institutions that
support capture fisheries agribusiness activities in Batang Regency consist of the Department
of Marine, Fisheries and Animal Husbandry, banks, and fishing port management units. Each
institution becomes a facilitator in the development of capture fisheries agribusiness in
Kabupaten Batang. The Marine Fisheries and Livestock Service Office acts as a government
institution that provides various services and regulations related to capture fisheries
agribusiness activities for fisheries business actors in accordance with their respective fields.
Banks act as capital providers for fisheries business actors. Meanwhile, the fishery port
management unit is an institution that manages various facilities, facilities and infrastructure
in the fishery port, including the provision of information related to weather and climate, as
well as the management of sailing permits. In general, the supporting subsystems in the
capture fisheries agribusiness in Kabupaten Batang have played a fairly good role, although
there are still various shortcomings in their implementation.
SWOT Strategy for Capture Fisheries Agribusiness
SWOT analysis is a tool for formulating an organization's strategy based on the
identification of internal and external factors of the organization concerned. The internal
factors in question are in the form of strengths and weaknesses owned by the organization,
while external factors are in the form of opportunities and threats that come from the external
environment of the organization. The determination of internal and external factors for the
development of capture fisheries agribusiness in Batang Regency is based on the key factors
described in Table 4 in the research method.
Identify strength and weakness factors
The identification of strengths and weaknesses is based on the results of the analysis of
the internal environment of capture fisheries agribusiness in Kabupaten Batang. The
following explanation of internal environmental factors that become strengths and weaknesses
in the capture fisheries agribusiness in Batang Regency can be seen in Table 11.
Internal factors that become strengths in the capture fisheries agribusiness system in
Batang Regency, namely:
1. Has the longest coastline in Central Java
Batang Regency is directly adjacent to the Java Sea. Based on data from the Marine
Fisheries and Livestock Service Office, Batang Regency has a coastline of 38.75 km with an
area width of 4 nautical miles, so that the sea area owned is 287.06 km2 . The coastline is one
of the longest among other districts/cities in Central Java.
2. One of the largest producers of captured marine fish in Central Java
Batang Regency is one of the largest producers of capture fisheries in Central Java when
compared to other regions. According to Central Java BPS data (2018) in 2014 the amount of
fish production in Batang Regency reached 27 974 811 kilograms, which managed to rank
second after Rembang Regency and in 2015 fish production increased to 30 444 433
kilograms which managed to rank third after Rembang Regency and Tegal City.
3. Job opportunities are still large in the capture fisheries subsector
In the capture fisheries subsector, there is not only the process of fishing by fishermen
(production activities), but also the provision of fisheries production facilities (upstream
activities), to the processing of capture fisheries products and marketing activities
(downstream activities). Based on Dislutkanak data, the potential human resources in all
businesses engaged in the marine and fisheries sector amount to around 12 833 people,
consisting of 11 745 fishermen and 1 088 people processing and marketing fishery products.
This number can still continue to grow along with the increasing demand for capture fisheries
products in the market. This means that employment opportunities in this subsector are still
large if further development is carried out.
4. The shipbuilding industry is growing rapidly
Boats a r e one of the most important means of fishing activities. Batang Regency has
its own shipyard industry to meet the demand of regional fishermen. The shipyard industry in
Batang Regency also fulfills demand from outside the region, even a br o a d . This industry
has grown rapidly since 2007 until now. Boat prices vary depending on size. Small vessels up
to 10 GT are priced at around 60 million rupiah, including engines and f ishi n g gear. Fully
equipped vessels of 10 GT-30 GT are priced at around 1 billion rupiah, and fully equipped
vessels of 30 GT-100 GT are priced up to around 10 billion rupiah. If fishermen are unable to
sail due to weather factors, most of them will turn to working as boat builders.
5. The great potential of processed marine fish products
Processed fish products are food products that are highly favored by consumers. Apart
from its delicious taste, processed fish products also have high protein. The types of processed
marine fish produced in Batang Regency are quite varied, such as smoked fish, pindang fish,
fish skin crackers, baby fish crispy, and so on. The processed fish product business has the
potential to be developed through market expansion outside the region, especially for regions
that have high demand for fishery products and do not have marine areas. Processed fish
products that are the mainstay in Batang Regency are smoked fish and pindang fish products.
However, the marketing of smoked fish products has a higher potential to be developed
outside the region, because not many regions produce this processed fish. In addition,
processed fish products can still be processed into various kinds of processed frozen food such
as fish nuggets, fish balls, fishrolls, and so on.
6. Batang Regency's strategic location on the Pantura route
Batang Regency is located on a strategic transportation route, both for land and sea
transportation. As one of the regencies located in the Pantura Region, Batang occupies a
strategic position because the Pantura route is often the main route for land transportation,
both for loaded and unloaded vehicles. Based on its location, the Batang Pantura road is
directly adjacent to Pekalongan Regency and Kendal Regency. The Batang Pantura route can
be an alternative transportation route from Jakarta to Semarang and vice versa. This provides
positive support for the regional economic life of Batang Regency. As for the sea route, the
coast of Batang Regency can be a stopover for ships.
7. The existence of policies for the development and modernization of facilities, infrastructure
and technology in the fisheries sector, optimally, environmentally friendly and responsible.
Since the issuance of KP RI Regulation No. 2/PERMEN-KP/2015 on the prohibition of
the use of trawls and seine nets in the fisheries management area of the Republic of Indonesia,
the central and regional governments have been more vigorous in modernizing infrastructure
and fishing technology that is environmentally friendly and responsible. The government
supports the ban through the provision of environmentally friendly replacement fishing gear.
Internal factors that become weaknesses in the capture fisheries agribusiness system in
Batang Regency, namely:
1. Declining potential of Java's marine resources
The Java Sea is the main source for Batang fishermen to catch fish. However, in recent
years the potential of this marine resource has decreased, making it increasingly difficult for
fishermen to get fish. This can be caused by the increasingly degraded marine biota
environment caused by environmentally unfriendly fishing practices.
2. Limited human resources of fisheries business actors
The human resources of fisheries business actors in Kabupaten Batang are still limited,
especially for fishermen. Most fishermen in Batang are elementary and junior high school
graduates, so their management and administrative skills are low. Most fishermen still focus
on catching fish and selling it at the auction site, without intending to further develop the
fisheries business they run. In addition, limited human resources in the marketing sector are
another weakness, especially for marketing processed fish products.
3. Dependence on the use of fishing gear that is not environmentally friendly Based on KP RI
Regulation Number 2/PERMEN-KP/2015 concerning the prohibition of the use of trawls and
seine nets in the fisheries management area of the Republic of Indonesia, fishing gear is one
type of seine nets and is not environmentally friendly has been banned from use in all
Indonesian waters. Cantrang is a non-selective and environmentally friendly fishing gear.
Almost all types of fish of various sizes can be caught using cantrang, including u nwa n t e d
fish. Most fishermen in Batang Regency and even Central Java are dependent on its use to this
day. In addition to using cantrang fishing gear, Batang fishermen also use other fishing gear
such as oceanic gillnets, umbrellas, trammel nets, one boat operated purse seine, and set long
lines. However, trawl is still the main fishing gear for most fishermen, because it is
considered easier to get fish and can provide more results. In mid-January 2018, the
government gave concessions related to the rules prohibiting the use of cantrang fishing gear
until an unspecified time during the transition of the fishing gear into more environmentally
friendly fishing gear. The government gave permission to fishermen to use cantrang with
various conditions and notes. The permit must be renewed annually if the fishermen still want
to use t rawl gear. During the permit renewal period until the total transition, there can be no
additional vessels using cantrang and the size of the ship. 2 Processing the permit can take up
to 4-6 months and the processing time is already counted into the program.
validity period of one year.
4. Still limited facilities and infrastructure in the marine and fisheries sector The marine and
fisheries subsector of Batang Regency is equipped by various facilities such as the Coastal
Fishing Port, TPI, boat refueling station, ice factory, beach pier, and other supporting facilities. While
the fishing fleet itself is mostly produced by local shipyard businesses, complementary equipment for
fishing activities is mostly obtained from outside the Batang area. In general, the existing facilities and
infrastructure are still considered limited and even not optimal in their utilization.
5. Suboptimal management of conservation areas and fishing port areas in Batang
Regency
Batang Regency is one of the regencies in Central Java that has a marine and coastal
conservation area. This area was created with the aim of protecting and preserving Java's
marine resources. However, in practice, this conservation area is still not functioning properly.
Meanwhile, the only fishing port area in Batang Regency, located in Klidang Lor, is also still
not optimally managed, even though this port is the center of capture fisheries agribusiness
activities in Batang Regency.
6. Limited management and marketing skills of fishery products Provision of processed fish
products can be a source of development
The main objective of the capture fisheries agribusiness in Kabupaten Batang is to open wider
markets in other regions. However, fisheries business actors, especially fish processors, are
limited in their management skills and in their ability to sell fish marketing of fishery products.
Fisheries business actors are still unable to open and utilize larger market opportunities.
7. The contribution of the capture fisheries subsector to the GRDP of Batang Regency is
relatively small compared to other subsectors, at around 2 percent. According to Dislutkanak
in 2012, this subsector contributed 2.35 percent to the GRDP of Batang Regency.
8. The number of fishery product processing businesses that are traditional with low product
quality, technical requirements, sanitation and hygiene
The number of fish processing business units in the Regency is relatively large, but most
of these fish processing business activities are still classified as traditional with an MSME
scale that has many limitations. The quality of the products produced is still relatively low,
where production techniques, sanitation and hygiene are still low or do not meet the good
manufacturing product.
SWOT Matrix
Based on the identification of internal and external environmental factors in the form of
strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in the capture fisheries agribusiness system
in Kabupaten Batang, strategies can be formulated in the SWOT matrix. Several alternative
strategies that can be applied in the development of capture fisheries agribusiness in Batang
Regency are divided into four types of strategies, namely S-O strategies, W-O strategies, S-T
strategies, and W- strategies T. A more complete SWOT strategy for the capture fisheries
agribusiness system in Kabupaten Batang is described in the strategy presentation below. The
results show that there are 3 S-O strategies, 3 W-O strategies, 2 S-T strategies, and 2 W-T
strategies suggested in the completion of the analysis of key factors of capture fisheries
agribusiness development strategies in Kabupaten Batang. Meanwhile, an overview of the
strategy results in the form of a SWOT matrix can be seen in Table 13.
CONCLUSIONS:
Capture fisheries agribusiness in Batang Regency is in a fairly good condition based
on the integration of the fisheries production facilities supply subsystem, production
subsystem, post-production, and supporting institutions subsystem. However, the
implementation of capture fisheries agribusiness in Batang still has many weaknesses and also
problems that come from outside. Based on the results of the study, the main internal factors
are 7 strengths and 8 weaknesses, while the main external factors are 5 opportunities and 6
threats. The strength factors are related to the ownership of the longest coastline, the large
number of employment opportunities in the related subsector, the rapid development of the
shipyard industry, the large potential for processed fish products, strategic location, policy
support for the development and modernization of marine and fisheries facilities,
infrastructure, and technology. Meanwhile, the weaknesses are related to the declining
potential of Java's SDL, dependence on the use of trawl, limited infrastructure, not optimal
management of conservation areas, limited management and marketing capabilities, relatively

small contribution of the capture fisheries subsector to Batang's GRDP, and processing of
fishery products that are still traditional in general. Opportunities are related to the increasing
demand for fisheries products, the implementation of the free market (greater market
opportunities), the imaging of fisheries products through Gemarikan, government support for
fisheries agribusiness through marine and fisheries industrialization. Threats are in the form of
damage to ecosystems and SDL, bad climate and weather, coastline change problems and
high sedimentation of river channels for ship traffic, fish theft by foreign fishermen,
weakening rupiah currency conversion against the dollar, and market competition with other
regions.
Based on SWOT analysis, the formulation of capture fisheries agribusiness strategy
The resulting 10 strategies consist of 3 S-O strategies, 3 W-O strategies, 2 S-T strategies, and
2 W-T strategies. The formulation of these strategies are: (1) Optimizing the potential of
existing natural resources to increase the production of fresh fish and processed fish in a real,
responsible and sustainable manner; (2) Increasing efforts to modernize facilities and
infrastructure, as well as fishing fleet technology in an optimal, environmentally friendly and
responsible manner; (3) Optimizing the use of strategic regional locations to open up greater
market opportunities related to the development of capture fisheries agribusiness; (4)
Reducing dependence on the use of fishing gear through the replacement of more
environmentally friendly fishing gear through cooperative research between the government
and local fishermen; ( 5) Improving management of facilities/infrastructure. marine and
fisheries subsector and optimizing the best use of existing facilities in accordance with the
operational standards of the initial objectives; (6) To intensify the implementation of
processed fish production with the principle of good manufacturing product as well as to
improve the management and marketing capabilities of fisheries business actors; (7) To
preserve the existing ecosystem and marine resources by optimizing the implementation of
policies to develop facilities and infrastructure, as well as marine and fisheries technology that
is environmentally friendly, responsible, and sustainable; (8) Implementing the concept of
capture fisheries clusters around coastal areas optimally and responsibly to increase investment
in the marine and fisheries subsector; (9) Creating cooperation and harmony between the
government and all elements of fisheries business actors to create an independent and
conducive capture fisheries agribusiness environment; (10) Improving the quality of fish
products by improving post-production management in accordance with applicable SOPs to
reach international markets.
