Abstract

One of the famous traditional food products from Semarang city is softboned-milkfish (called as bandengpresto). In national level, Bandeng Presto is the trade mark of Semarang City. Bandeng presto are producedby several outlet in Semarang from small to large in scales. The products are vary, in term of variety,quality, processing technique, packaging and prices. The small-scaler produces less in quality standard,safety, packaging, and marketing system. Nevertheless, there are several small-scaller outlets are able toreach the international market after they promoted their product through webside or internet. The objectivesof the study were to develop the improved quality in production techniques, lay out designed, and themarketing strategy for bandeng presto in Semarang city to support the regional food security and food safety.The results indicated that nutritional content of bandeng presto are good in general and can be considered asgood nutritional resource for human. Raw material and processing technique influence the nutrition value ofthe product. Based on market survey suggests that bandeng presto is more efficiently promoted throughwebsite, especially to touch the long distance customers. In addition, improved in packaging design and inlabelling (recently for exposing information on EPA and DHA of the product) will help customers to assurethe quality of the product properly.

Abstract

Indonesia is a maritime country, composed about 17,500 islands. It has a great endeavor of open waterresources such as river, lake, dam, pond, swamp, etc. which are spread over the country. Multi-tribes and –races are attributed to its habits, tradition, and culture of the communities lived. Given such large territory,especially Indonesia is formed of thousands island, it will be costly to set a formal enforcement andsurveillance in securing the open-access resources (like fisheries, water, etc). Fortunately, each communityhas an indigenous or traditional system to manage the resources. For example: Ikan Larangan (in WestSumatra), sasi (in Maluku), Subak (in Bali), Sedekah Laut (in Java) and so on (Susilowati, 1996; 1999).Rather than waiting a complete formal resource management (and need to be set up by the government) anddo not know when will be effectively apply, thus it will be more reasonable and timely to revive thetraditional system of resource management belongs to the respective community. In short, communityinvolvement in resource management is urgently encouraged, particularly in developing country withlimited budget like Indonesia. This paper is attempt to compile an experienced of Co-management approachto manage the open water resource done by Susilowati (1999, 2002, 2004, 2006, 2007). An institutionalanalysis (Pomeroy and William, 1994) and Pinkerton (1989) with necessary modification were applied tothe respective studies. The results indicated that there is a fairly prospect to empower the competentstakeholders (community, government, private, independent parties) to be involved in managing the openaccessresources. However, all parties need to be encouraged for a high intention in participation,commitment and somehow to create their sense of belonging to advocate the resource management. It iseasy to say but hardly to be materialized all the things for Indonesian context, except the leaders (formal andinformal) in the respective region are really committed to conserve the resource.

Abstract

This paper examines the behavior of the fishers violating a zoning regulation under a condition of limited enforcement in the fisheries of Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines. Rational utility theory is used as a framework for explaining compliance behavior. Samples of 304 violators from the study area were used in the analysis. Tobit model is employed in the analysis. The results indicate that economic, morality and social influence factors determine the overall violation decision of individual violators fishing in the prohibited area. In the general the findings of the study were consistent with the theoretical model of compliance behavior tested by previous researchers. Enforcement is costly thus to improve fishers’ compliance in the study area there is a need to used other determinants of compliance as such as morality and social influence factors. Fisheries management authorities should also explore alternative approaches for managing fisheries such as participatory or community-based management approaches. Such approaches may incur lower monitoring and enforcement costs. rateB� R J��EER. The best absolute growth (292,05g), daily growth rate (1,34%/day), FCR (2,31), PER (1,68) and NPU (8,37), were achieved by treatment B, followed by C and A. meanwhile, the best SR was achieved by treatment C and followed A, and B.  Therefore, treatment B appeared to be the best fish feed formulation for Red tilapia production.

Abstract

“Ikan larangan” is a kind of fisheries management system that applied closing seasons of fishing in a portion of river or canal for certain period. There are three types of ikan larangan’s management: (1) traditional; (2) semi-traditional; and (3) modern. The total sample of 99 household respondents were withdrawn from the three sites of ikan larangan, i.e.: (1) ikan larangan Lubuk landur (traditional, n=19); (2) ikan larangan Kayu Tanam (semi-traditional, n=20); (3) ikan larangan Pasir Lawas (modern, n=60). The study emphasizes more on the modern of ikan larangan system. This is in attempt to find out the possibility of implementing this system to other places in Indonesia as an alternative of resource management system and for food security purpose as well as for enhancing the fisheries sector and the regional developments. Furthermore, the co-management application of ikan larangan could encourage the implementation of decentralization policy in Indonesia since the system may able to help in empowering people and the available resources to generate the local income. Moreover, the salient characteristics of co-management system for ikan larangan could be adopted to prescribe the acceptable resource management for the similar circumstances of the resource in some places in Indonesia.

Abstract

The study was conducted due to high incidence of non-compliance by fishers in Central Java fisheries. The overall objective of the study is to examine the compliance behavior of fishers in Pemalang Regency. Eighty-five (n=85) respondents have been selected from the study areas using multi-stages sampling method. Moreover, key-persons from Fisheries Office, Navy and head of fishers’ association have also been interviewed  to enrich the analysis of the study. Non-compliance behaviour of fishers in this study was viewed from violation of: restricted area (zoning), restricted gears and means (explosive and poison) and administration (such as permits). Model of non-compliance behavior as outlined by Kuperan (1993) and Susilowati (1998) has been applied to analyze the data in this study with necessary modification. Tobit model explained by Gujarati (2003) was employed as the estimation techniques. Most of independent variables such as demographical factors, fishing effort, deterrence indicators and legitimacy variables have expected signs although statistically are not always significant. In general, the model of non-compliance behaviour could portrait the phenomena of violation behaviour of fishers in the study area.  It is realized that  law enforcement in Indonesian fisheries is weak  for several reasons. Therefore, to improve the fishers’ compliance perhaps an alternative approach such as empowering the people and its stakeholders should be found.

Abstract

The commitment of fishers towards their community development is investigated in this study. Several statistical tools such as discriminant analysis, cross-tabulation  and compare means  with  independent t-test have been employed  to analyze the data which were collected from 56 samples in the study area of  Wedung and Moro Demak, Demak Regency.  The results  showed  that  the commitment behaviour  of fishers  might be guided  by several variables  such as  Age, Sex, Educ, Exper, Inc, Stay.  In order  to improve the commitment levels of respondents,  thus, magnitude of  the observed variables in the model could be explored further.  Lastly, the model of fishers’ commitment with discriminant analysis performes fairly good with  the right prediction of the original grouped cases is correctly classified for about 62.5%.

Abstract

Enforcement activities is important to determine the success of fisheries management. However, enforcement is costly for Indonesia which made up from many islands and has very long coastline. Therefore, it is needed to find the alternative with least in cost. One of the feasible alternatives is by empowering fishers and their communities to monitor and surveillance the fisheries resources in their adjacent. This system is rather using traditional concept of community-based or co-management.

Abstract

Indonesia has a great endeavor in fisheries resources. However, most of the resources remain underutilized in some extents. At the same time, resources disparity is occurred in Indonesian fisheries. Tight competition among the resource users happen in fisheries with dense population. In such situation, thereafter, tragedy of common phenomena will happen. Managing fisheries resource in the condition which constitutes thousands of islands like Indonesia is not an easy task and should be quit costly in expenses. One of strategies that require less in cost and could promise a better achievement is through reviving the potency which belongs to the community (such as traditions, customs, beliefs, etc.) and with empowering community to manage the fisheries resource.

Abstract

Semarang Municipality is passed by Babon river in the Eastern part. This river  flows from Ungaran in Semarang Regency at the upper-stream  and  streams down to Java sea  in Demak Regency.This river is utilised by various parties for multi-purposes. Thus, to manage Babon river and its watershed need coordination among the stakeholders. In this case, community as one of the competent stakeholders  is considered as the most important  role player who determine the success of sustainable river management. Babon river passes Semarang City longer than Semarang and Demak regencies. It seems  when the stakeholders  of Semarang pay more attention to Babon river will harvest more benefits compared to its costs. It  indeed needs  sharing in responsibility and understanding among the stakeholders along the watershed of Babon river. Collaborations between G to G (such as Germany and Indonesia) and Local Government (LG) to  LG are seriously needed to support the success of the river management. Nevertheless, many efforts have been made  on  it. As mentioned by Lilin (2000), the existing participation contributed by  community and key-persons along the Babon watershed in Semarang City were relatively low. The preliminary survey indicated that introducing co-management approach among the stakeholders  in managing Babon river will  provide  a good prospect in the future. Many evidences have shown the success of  co-management approach in managing natural resources in the third world countries in Asia, Africa and the developed ones. Babon river is a common resource, open-access to any parties and transboundary along three regions, thereby, need  protocol concept  to achieve the optimal  management. What are the priority and how co-management should be implemented in  Babon river are not easy questions but subject to further research.

Abstract

Ikan Larangan is a good example of the revived traditional community-based resource management in Indonesia. Purposive sampling was employed to withdraw 99 household samples in the study area. A research framework for institutional analysis as recommended by ICLARM (Pomeroy, 1993) was applied to this study. The results found that the average score of the 11 key-conditions for successful Co-management is close to 4. This indicates  that the prospects  for Co-management application of Ikan Larangan system is sound. Therefore, the salient approach of Co-management could be adopted to prescribe acceptable fisheries resource management in Indonesia.
