The thing that causes a decrease in the profits of fishermen catching nets is the reduced amount of production caused by constraints such as torn nets and restrictions on activities by the government. The crab fishermen have increased the selling price of the crab which was originally between Rp.30,000 before Covid-19 to Rp.35,000 during Covid-19. Most of the crabs are sold to companies/collectors so that they can increase the income of crab fishermen. Keywords: Traps, Nets, Income, Crabs, Covid-19 ]]>
