PROCESSED PRODUCT DIVERSIVATION BASED COTTLE FISH FOR COASTAL FISHING COMMUNITIES

The highest production (catching) of tuna reached 32.22% per year but the selling price of fish was very low, while the fish processing business was only in the form of wooden fish (keumamah) and smoking due to low mastery of technology and absorption of innovation. The business of processing tuna into shredded fish and fish crackers has never been carried out by the coastal fishing communities of Aceh, even though this business has the potential to be developed on a household scale. The service activity aims to provide training on processing tuna into shredded fish and fish crackers for fishing communities in coastal areas in the category of poor families. The method used is the survey method and Focus Group Discussion (FGD). Demonstrations of processing tuna into shredded fish and fish crackers can open up insights and business opportunities for housewives and young fishermen in creating added value and profit for traditional fishing households as well as improving production management and marketing of competitively processed fish. This activity can foster an entrepreneurial spirit among coastal fishing communities to increase fishermen's household income.

Analysis of Household Food Security of Fishermen in Coastal Area, Bangil District, Pasuruan Regency

The low income of fishermen makes it difficult to fulfill basic household food needs and non-food basic needs. The purpose of this study was to analyze the level of energy adequacy and the level of protein adequacy and identify the factors that affect the food security of fishermen's households. The first analysis was carried out descriptively by combining food expenditure and energy consumption indicators. The second analysis uses a logit model regression analysis. The analysis results show that the food security condition of fishermen's households is at the food shortage level of 43.34%. Fisherman households in the food insecurity criteria are 10%, and food security is 23.33%. It means that more than 60% of fishermen's household income is spent on food consumption. The low income received has resulted in fisherman households being unable to allocate food expenditures to meet the nutritional adequacy of their household. The factors that influence the food security of fishermen's households are the size of the household members, household expenditures, and the nutritional knowledge of housewives. Local governments should coordinate with other institutions to formulate policies and plans for economic development in coastal areas.

Socioeconomic Study of Coastal Fishing at the Port of Tangier in Morocco

Coastal fisheries constitute an important source of employment and income for many coastal communities in Tangier. However, and despite its importance, there is little information available about their socioeconomic characteristics.

Efforts to Increase the Income of Small Fishermen Through Off Fishing Employment in Banyuwangi Regency

AbstractThe utilization of fishery and marine resources in the form of fishing business in Banyuwangi Regency is still dominated by small-scale fisheries (traditional/small scale fisheries). It is known that there are still many fishing workers who depend on the fishermen for their livelihoods. So it is necessary to find alternative sources of additional income for small fishing households. The purpose of this study was to determine the economic behavior of fishermen's households, to analyze the contribution of off fishing businesses to the improvement of the fishermen's household economy, and to formulate alternative strategies to increase the income of fishermen's households in Banyuwangi Regency through off fishing employment. The research is focused on 2 sub-districts, namely Muncar District and Purwoharjo District, Banyuwangi Regency. The location selection was carried out by conducting a case study on small-scale fishing households that carried out an off-fishing business at the research location and 30% was taken using Simple Random Sampling. The analysis of the economic behavior of small fishermen households is described in the estimation of several variables of fishing experience, fishing frequency, number of fishing gear, boat size, and the addition of the amount of gasoline. The contribution of off-fishing businesses to the total household income of small-scale fishermen is quite varied, depending on the fishermen's income from fishing at sea. The greater the income of fishermen from catching fish in the sea, the greater the income of fishermen from catching fish at sea. By using the off fishing system, the strategy needed is the provision of technical training, especially regarding various fishery product processing to increase added value, institutional strengthening is carried out by making institutional reforms, and the problem of limited capital can be overcome by providing capital assistance.Keywords: economic behavior, income, strategy, off fishing

Gender Relationship Analysis in Coastal Resources Management in Fishermen's Households: Functional Structural Theory Perspective

The results showed that gender relations in the management of coastal resources in fishing households took place in the following activities: fishing; making fishing lines; netting; net embroidery; fish transportation; fish preservation; and sale of fish. Of the seven activities, the wife plays a role in almost all coastal resource management activities, except for fishing activities. In addition, the wife does all domestic roles while the husband only focuses on the public role and does not involve himself in the domestic role. In view of the structural-functional theory, the results of this study illustrate that gender relations in coastal resource management in fishing households indicate a power relationship and status differences between men and women. The involvement of the wife (woman) in almost all activities is a form of integration (integration) carried out by the wife (woman) to maintain the continuity of the household and maintain the balance of the family integrity system, although this role is not balanced but complementary. The results of this study also show that gender relations in the management of coastal resources in fishermen's households have ideologically “perpetuated” male domination and gender stratification in fishermen's family institutions and society in general.

Adaptive coping strategies towards seasonal change impacts: Indonesian small-scale fisherman household

Small-scale fishers are always expected to adapt to fishing activities that cannot be conducted all year round due to weather and fishing season. This condition, especially when it is not the fish season, makes fishers face a problem. Notwithstanding, fishermen households need to develop an adequate adaptation strategy to solve the problem of fulfilling their needs, known as coping strategies. This study aims to analyze fishermen households' coping strategies in facing the fishing season and non-fish season by using fishermen's family resources and two types of internal and external family coping strategies. The data were gathered from approximately 150 small-scale fishing households using simple random sampling. The results indicate the fishers do fishing activities in three batch: peak season (68%), mild season (20%), and off-season (12%). The use of resources for fishermen households' coping strategy is carried out by diversifying the sources of household income. Some economic activities include cultivating forest land belonging to the forest department, marine tour guides, livestock, and his wife. This study also confirm that all households use internal family coping strategies with humor indicator as the highest percentage. Accordingly, the households also adopt the external family coping strategy to deal with the existing situation. This strategy follows the local community's characteristics and culture who are friendly and open and based on religion. The household coping strategy strengthening model is generated through the synergy of formal institutional roles in society and government institutions as policymakers.
