ANALISIS MUSIM PENANGKAPAN IKAN TERI (STOLEPHORUS SP.) DI TELUK DODINGA, KABUPATEN HALMAHERA BARAT
ABSTRACT: Fisheries should be
a sustainable economic activity in order to maintain its services in the
future. Sustainable marine fisheries resources exploitation requires a utilization
rate lower than the resources availability. Therefore, the exploitation rate
should not achieve the recovery ability of the resources in any particular
period. In fishing activities, for instance, there is a guideline not to catch
fish over the Total Allowable Catch (TAC), 80% of the MSY value.
The exploitation rate of the anchovy (Stolephorus sp.) in Dodinga Bay was
still low. It could result from small-scaled traditional fishermen and low
fishing distance from the shore. Their income was also low due to high
operational cost and fluctuation in fish price. To improve the fishermen
prosperity, it is necessary to raise the fishing productivity and the
efficiency of production input utilization on the boat lift net. This study
focused on understanding the anchovy fishing season of the boat lift net in
Dodinga Bay to analyze the yearly fishing seasons for the last five years.
Results concluded that the fishing season of the anchovy (Stolephorus
sp.) in Dodinga Bay could be separated into two phases, March to June and
October to November, but the former was more extensive and lager in scale than
the later.
