Sea Cucumber Fishing Areas and Management in Indonesia, 2012-2021

Ana Setyastuti's study on figshare investigates sea cucumber fishing governance in Indonesia. It identifies 31 fishing areas, 56 harvested species, and export trends from 2012 to 2021, exploring management strategies like catch quotas and customary law. The dataset is a 427.1 KB PDF file last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Mapping fishing pressure based on the identified 31 sea cucumber fishing areas.
• Analyzing species diversity trends based on the reported 56 harvested species and regional differences.
• Evaluating export volume stability based on the 2012-2021 trend mentioned in the description.
• Assessing the effectiveness of management strategies like total allowable catch quotas and minimum legal-size limits.
• Studying the application of customary law ('sasi') based on its implementation in 27 areas in Eastern Indonesia.

Strengths

• Provides specific counts for key variables: 31 fishing areas and 56 harvested species.
• Includes a defined temporal analysis of export volume from 2012 to 2021.
• Examines concrete management strategies, including the 'sasi' system applied in 27 areas.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for quantitative modeling.
• The data is presented in a PDF format (427.1 KB), which may require extraction for structured analysis.
