Profil Tambak Desa Kuala Langsa Dan Desa Cinta Raja, Kota Langsa: Sebagai Data Dasar Pembangunan Akuakultur Berkelanjutan Di Kota Langsa

Abstract

The fisheries sector, both capture fisheries and aquaculture, is one of the economic drivers of Langsa City. Fisheries cultivation in Langsa used to be very active with productive ponds stretching from Alur Dua Village, to the border of Langsa City and Aceh Tamiang. However, many of these ponds are now abandoned. Every year, the Aquaculture Study Program at Samudra University routinely holds community service activities (PKM). In order that PKM activities can be planned well, the Aquaculture Study Program is collecting data to determine the current dynamics of fish pond activities in two villages with areas that are still active, and this data collection is the beginning of a series of community service activities that will be carried out to increase the productivity of aquaculture in the area. From the results of this data collection, it can be concluded that pond productivity is very low due to inadequate application of technology applied to the three indicators used, namely ownership status, pond productivity and management, disease and technology. Therefore, to attract farmers to use technology, the most appropriate form of activity in the two villages is the development of a model (pilot project) regarding pond management which involves pond activists at every stage
