Description
Summary:Sabang City has significant potential in coral reef fisheries, which are among its key commodities with high economic and ecological value. However, its management faces several challenges, including seasonal dependency of fishermen, fishing practices targeting fish below their gonadal maturity level, repeated exploitation of the same fishing grounds, and the use of traditional poisons. This study aims to evaluate ecosystem-based coral reef fisheries management within the fishing gear domain at the Fish Landing Site (TPI) Pasiran, Sabang City. The research was conducted from July 1 to July 30, 2024, at the Fish Landing Site (TPI) Pasiran, Sukakarya District, Sabang City. Data collection utilized primary methods (interviews and questionnaires) and secondary methods (reports from related institutions and previous studies). The sampling technique used was a census method with a total of 10 respondents. Data analysis employed ordinal Likert scale scores (1, 2, and 3) for each indicator, followed by the calculation of index values, composite scores, and descriptive analysis. The results show that coral reef fisheries management at TPI Pasiran falls under the “good” category with a composite score of 78. However, certain aspects, such as crew certification ownership and fishing capacity and effort, require further attention to enhance fisheries sustainability.
