Measurement of fisheries provisioning services and its pressure to support sustainability of fisheries in the Jatigede Reservoir, Indonesia

Abstract

Jatigede Reservoir is a newly inundated reservoir in Sumedang Regency, West Java. Jatigede Reservoir provides ecosystem services in the form of aquatic organisms as food for the surrounding community. The lack of research related to ecosystem services in Jatigede Reservoir, and there has been no research related to the method of measuring the status of fisheries provisioning services, makes this article focused and aims to determine the status of ecosystem provisioning services in the fisheries sector and elaborate anthropogenic pressures. The results obtained in this study are the status of provisioning services getting 2.2 points which means the status is in the moderate class. The anthropogenic pressure obtained is in the form of residual waste from the floating net cage, trash or waste sent from rivers that enter the Jatigede Reservoir, residual oil and boat oil waste, and domestic waste in the form of metabolic waste (urine and feces) and residual oil food and leftover soap from people working and doing activities in the waters. This data is needed for making strategies and a policy for the sustainability of fisheries in Jatigede Reservoir.
