Abstract
Objective: This research aims to determine the quality of water along the Wiringtasi River, Barru Regency, Indonesia in relation to the development of fish cultivation. Material and method: Sampling was carried out by random sampling by selecting three research locations, namely location 1 is a river location close to rice fields, location 2 is a location close to pond areas and beaches, and location 3 is a location around the mouth of the Wiringtasi River. The data collected is water quality parameter data, which includes temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, and salinity. The data obtained is then processed and linked to fish cultivation needs. The data was then analyzed using descriptive analysis. Results: The research results show that the water temperature in the Wiringtasi river is in the average range of 29.4–30.4 oC. The average dissolved oxygen at the research location is in the range of 4.31–5.08 ppm. The average value of water pH at the research location is in the range of 6.33-7.17, while the average value of water salinity at the research location is in the range of 12.67-36.83 ppt. Conclusion: All water quality parameters measured in the Wiringtasi River, Barru Regency, Indonesia, are still in accordance with the growth and survival needs of fish.
