Abstract

Accurate capture fishery production data at the fishing ports is crucial, especially for planning the development of capture fisheries and fishing ports. This research aims to analyze the mechanism and accuracy in collecting capture fishery data at the fishing port, especially Cilacap Ocean Fishing Port (OFP). The data collection mechanism of capture fishery production is analyzed through a qualitative descriptive method, while the accuracy of the data was analyzed with a comparative quantitative descriptive method. The results showed three steps in the data collection mechanism at Cilacap OFP: data collection, data recapitulation, and data reporting. The values of deviation and accuracy level of the data on capture fishery were 3,4%-62,1% and 37,9%-96,6%, respectively. This result concluded that the data recorded by the enumerator were more accurate than those in the logbook classified as inaccurate.Keywords:CilacapDataFishAccurateFishing Port

Highlights

  • Capture fisheries data are essential in measuring the potential fish resources and level of utilization in a given region (Wiadnyana et al, 2010; Sandria et al, 2014; Kurniawan et al, 2019)

  • The Harbormaster Section, the Port Operations Section (Data and Statistics, and the Fishery Port Information Center), and the fish auction place Manager are the parties involved in collecting data on the production of capture fisheries at Cilacap Ocean Fishing Port (OFP). 1) Harbormaster section

  • The Harbormaster section at Cilacap OFP is part of the operational structure tasked with checking fishing logbooks

Summary

Introduction

Capture fisheries data are essential in measuring the potential fish resources and level of utilization in a given region (Wiadnyana et al, 2010; Sandria et al, 2014; Kurniawan et al, 2019). They can be used as references for making development planning programs and policies in the field of marine fisheries. Capture fisheries data collection officers at the fishing ports do not directly weigh the captured fish. It is essential to evaluate the procedure for collecting data on capture fishery at the fishing ports
