Efficiency Analysis Of Trammelnet Gears in Cilacap Regency,

By Irma Suryahani


Abstract

The aim of this research is to analyze the efficiency variables input (technical, price, and economic efficiency) of catching effort by trammel net in Cilacap Regency Central Java. The variables input are labors, fuel, gear, boat, fisher’s experience and foods supply that can be impact of fish production by trammel net. There are 103 respondents of trammel net fisher that could be collected by survey method in this location. The software that used for this data collected is Frontier Production function from Limited Dependent Program (Viswanathan, K. Kuperan, et.al.,2002 and Zen, L.W., et.al.,2002).

The estimation result shown that fishing effort with trammel net in Cilacap sea is in-efficiencies. The value of technical efficiency from this gear is 0,416. It’s mean only 41,6% input variables from all of input effective been used. So, there is most of it (58,4%) are useless. Input variables such as gear, fisherman’s experience and foods supply are significant to this function, other’s aren’t but all of them can be explain the dependent variable (fishery production by trammel net). It shown by likelihood scale is -134,357. It can be conclus in that fishing area (Cilacap Sea) shown over fishing.

Fisherman should be use another gear except trammel net in order to keep the sustainable ecosystem in that area.
