Aquaculture is growing rapidly in Banjar District of Kalimantan Selatan Province, including
on Riam Kanan Reservoir which is a center for floating net cage aquaculture. The increasing
aquaculture on Riam Kanan Reservoir is not supported by adequate and actual data regarding
the distribution, number of plots and number of fishery household (FHs) of floating net cage
aquaculture. Complete, accurate and actual data is needed as one of the considerations in
implementing sustainable aquaculture management policies. This study aims to map the
distribution of floating net cages based on zones and business scale level, analyze the number
of plots and the number of FHs of floating net cage aquaculture on Riam Kanan Reservoir. The
study was conducted in July-October 2019 using 2 survey methods: a drone survey to collect
aerial photographs and a field survey to identify the number of FHs and floating net cage plots
based on business scale level. The results of aerial photography were analyzed using the Agisoft
Metashape Professional and Arcgis 10.7 applications. Field survey data were analyzed using
the Archgis 10.7 application and Microsoft Excel. The floating net cage is spread over 6 zones
totaling 4,263 plots, consisting of criteria for small business scale 1,774 plots, medium scale
1,234 plots and large scale 1,255 plots. FHs of floating net cage aquaculture spread in 7 villages
as many as 425 units with the criteria of 331 small scale business, 87 medium scale and 28 large
scale. The plots and FHs of floating net cage aquaculture on Riam Kanan Reservoir has
increased significantly over the past 4 years. |
