IDENTIFIKASI KOMODITAS UNGGULAN SUBSEKTOR PERIKANAN KABUPATEN KOTABARU TAHUN 2016-2025

Abstrak

This study aims to identify leading commodities in the fishery subsector of Kotabaru Regency during 2016-2025. Kotabaru has substantial fishery potential because of its coastal, archipelagic, and inland water characteristics, yet commodity-level information on comparative advantage and competitiveness across districts remains limited. This research uses a descriptive quantitative approach based on secondary production data from Statistics Indonesia and regional planning documents. Location Quotient (LQ) is applied to distinguish basic and non-basic commodities, while Shift-Share Analysis (SSA) is used to assess growth and regional competitiveness. The findings indicate that marine fisheries are the most dominant basic and competitive commodity in coastal and archipelagic districts, whereas inland fisheries, ponds, and brackish-water ponds become strategic commodities in selected mainland districts. The results suggest that fishery development in Kotabaru should be spatially differentiated, combining marine-fishery strengthening in coastal areas with aquaculture intensification in mainland and estuarine zones.
