CHAPTER III. Assessment of EAFM Indicators on the Social

3.1. Data collection technique

In evaluating EAFM indicators in the Social Domain, primary data can be obtained through direct field observations and secondary data from available references. Interviews were conducted after determining the selected respondents from the sampling results. Face-to-face debriefing was carried out using a guide or questionnaire to obtain information according to the purpose of this study. The characteristics of direct interviews are as follows.

  1. The interviewer and respondent do not know each other;

  2. the interviewer asked, the respondent answered;

  3. the interviewer is neutral, does not direct the respondent; And

  4. the questions asked following the guide or questionnaire.

Sampling was carried out using a stratified random sampling method; namely, the respondents that will be interviewed were determined in stages. This sampling technique pays attention to every population element from each group that does not overlap (the elements are homogeneous) and must have the same opportunity. Sampling strata can use administrative boundaries or the type of fishing gear used. The allocation of the number of samples from each level is sought using the principle of proportional allocation.

The description of data collection techniques for each indicator is as follows:

Community Participation indicator data/information can be obtained through the following:

  • Results of direct field observations related to the number of fishing actors involved in sustainable fisheries management;

  • monitoring reports from related work units;

  • scientific data from related research institutions or academics; and/or

  • results of interviews with fishermen/other competent respondents.

The steps for giving a criterion value to the community participation indicator are:

  1. Collecting data on all indicators of community participation in an inland water ecosystem.

  2. Rate the criteria (nk) for Community Participation indicators with the following value criteria:

  • nk 1 = There is no community participation;

3.2. Analysis Techniques

EAFM analysis is a multi-attribute approach to symptoms or performance indications of aquatic ecosystem conditions. Substantially, the assessment of EAFM indicators is a multi-criteria analysis system that ends in assessing a composite index to determine the status of fisheries management using the flag modeling technique (Adrianto, Matsuda, and Sakuma, 2005). Data analysis is needed to find out the relationship between the current management performance status based on the data of each indicator in the stakeholder domain and recommendations for fisheries management actions that will be developed.

Currently, there are tools available that can be used to analyze the condition of EAFM in general and the conditions of each EAFM domain, especially the stakeholder domain, namely by using the EAFM indicator assessment matrix (as attached). In detail, the method for calculating the composite score on social indicators and domains is described as follows:

The formula used to calculate the composite indicator (CI) value of Community Participation is:

Description:

image.png = weight value of community participation indicator 

image.png = ranking value of community Participation indicator

From the 6 (six) indicators in the Social Domain, the rating value of the Community Participation indicator is in third place. Thus the weight of the Community Participation indicator has a value of 14. It shows that the Community Participation indicator has quite an effect on the Social Domain. The formula used to calculate the value of the weight (br) of Community Participation is:

The formula used to calculate the composite indicator (CI) value for Fisheries Conflict is:

image.png

Description:

image.png = fisheries conflict indicator composite

image.png = ranking value of fisheries conflict indicators 

image.png = criterion value of fisheries conflict indicator 

From the 6 (six) indicators in the Social Domain, the rating value of the Fisheries Conflict indicator is 2. Thus the weight of the Fisheries Conflict indicator has a value of 10. It shows that the Fisheries Conflict indicator has a low influence on the Social Domain. The formula used to calculate the weight value (br) of Fisheries Conflict is:

The formula used to calculate the composite indicator value (CI) of Local agreement is:

image.png

Description:

From the 6 (six) indicators in the Social Domain, the rating value of the Local Agreement indicator is 15. Thus the weight of the Local Agreement indicator has a value of 24. It shows that the indicator of the utilization of local knowledge has quite a high influence on the Social Domain. The formula used to calculate the weight value (br) utilization of local knowledge is:

The formula used to calculate the composite indicator value (CI) of Figure Role is:

image.png

Description:

From the 6 (six) indicators in the Social Domain, the ranking value of the Figure Role indicator is 6. Thus the weight of the Figure Role indicator has a value of 29. It shows that the Figure Role indicator influences the Social domain. The formula used to calculate the weight value (br) of the character's role is:

image.png = ranking value of the education proportion indicator

image.png = value of the education proportion indicator criterion

From the 6 (six) indicators in the Social Domain, the rating value of the Proportion of Education indicator is 4. Thus the weight of the Education Level indicator has a value of 19. It shows that the Education Level indicator has quite an effect on the Social Domain. The formula used to calculate the weight value (br) of the Proportion of Education is:

image.png

The formula used to calculate the composite indicator value (CI) of experience as a fisherman is:

image.png

Description:

image.png= composite of experience as a fisherman indicator

image.png = the weight value of the experience as a fisherman indicator

image.png = rank value of the experience as a fisherman indicator

image.png = value of experience as a fisherman criterion indicator

From 6 (six) indicators in the Social Domain, the rating value of the Proportion of Education indicator is 1. Thus the weight of the Education Level indicator has a value of 5. It shows that the Education Level indicator has minimal influence on the Social Domain. The formula used to calculate the value of the weight (br) of experience as a Fisherman is:

Description:

image.png= social domain composite value

The image.png value obtained is used to analyze the Social Domain condition status flags in implementing fisheries management with an ecosystem approach or the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM) in inland waters. The status flag criteria for social domains are grouped based on 3 (three) categories, namely:

2 (two) factors determine its value to evaluate each indicator in each domain, namely weight and score. The weight is from a set of indicators in the same domain, sorted by importance from high to low, with a total of 100% (maximum 1). The score uses a Likert scale of 1 to 3, namely 1 = low, 2 = moderate, 3 = high.

Based on the calculation of the CD3 value above, it is known that the Social Domain status flag is yellow or in moderate condition (value 1075). It shows that the conditions of the local Social Domain have implemented the principles of sustainable fisheries but are not yet optimal. So it is necessary to establish a strategic plan to optimize or improve the conditions of the existing domains and indicators.
