Abstract

This study aims to develop a strategy for the sustainability of shrimp aquaculture using an ecosystem approach or EAA in Pinrang Regency, South Sulawesi. A series of analyzes were carried out, namely the environmental carrying capacity analysis of aquaculture using pond environmental feasibility standards, analysis of critical factors for the sustainability of aquaculture using multidimensional scaling analysis, analysis of the sustainability status of aquaculture using pairwise comparison analysis and analysis of shrimp aquaculture management strategies based on EAA. using hierarchy process analysis. The results showed that the following strategies were needed: a) accelerating spatial planning and implementing programs in accordance with the directions for spatial use and control; b) institutional strengthening of capital cultivators in order to complement and improve facilities and infrastructure in accordance with the SOP; and c) increasing the level of education and providing a social and economic security system for members of the shrimp farming community

Summary

Introduction

South Sulawesi Province is the center of aquaculture production in Indonesia, spreading land over several districts. Pinrang Regency has the largest area for shrimp cultivation in South Sulawesi Province (KKP, 2016). Pinrang Regency has a shrimp pond area of 15 026 ha or about 18% of the total area of shrimp ponds in South Sulawesi (KKP, 2016). The area of ponds in Suppa sub-district is only about 1 595.22 ha, and this area is smaller than other sub-districts such as Cempa, Duampanua, and Lembang This phenomenon has occurred since the discovery of the Suppa shrimp population (Phronima sp.) and is used by local farmers as shrimp seed feed to replace the function of artemia in marginal ponds, which have been affected by outbreaks of White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV) and Vibrio harveyi bacteria during the period 1998-2007. The results of the use of micro-crustaceans from the genus Phronima have unexpectedly led to the successful
