| Abstract |
Indonesia is a tropical country with high marine biodiversity, including sea cucumber. The high demand for sea cucumber has led fishermen to catch sea cucumber regardless of the type or size suitable for harvesting. The lack of cultivation and regulations governing the protection of sea cucumbers has caused some species to be endangered. Sea cucumber species with high selling prices are increasingly difficult to find in West Likupang District. This study aims to identify strategies for managing sea cucumber fisheries sustainably and provide policy recommendations for their sustainable management in West Likupang District. This study used a survey method and then analyzed it with a SWOT analysis (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, threats). The SWOT analysis reveals several strategies for achieving sustainable sea cucumber fisheries: legislation, conservation efforts, aquaculture development, regulated fishing, proper post-harvest handling, and educating fishermen on regulations. |
