77 Generally, this activity can generate their income, but integration among
sub-system elements is needed including 1 risk factor; protecting location that is located in a bay, safety from robbing and conflict of interests, 2 effortless factors;
transportation, cultivation and harvest marketing. 3. Seed stock suitable for seaweed. All criteria have been met cooperation among government, fisherman
and investor are also needed. Land uses for seaweed in Maros have not been optimally developed yet,
because the region limitation factors such as infrastructure, funding and other supporting factors. Land suitability for seaweed in Maros is presented in Fig 4.21.
4.6.4. Land Suitability for “Kejapung”
Selection of “kejapung” cultivation location needs some criteria physical and chemical aspects such as protection from strong current and wave that can
disturb it. Another criteria such as depth, salinity, DO, temperature, and PH are also considered. Land suitability area for “kejapung” was dominated by suitable
and marginally suitable. Area suitable for “kejapung” can be seen in Table 4.7. Meanwhile, the map of land suitability area for “kejapung” is represented in Fig
4.22.

Binangasangkarak is located only in marginally suitable area for kejapung cultivation, because the water brightness was below the minimum standard
required for kejapung cultivation. For other criteria, the rank of suitability was not too varied. Mostly, water area is suitable for kejapung cultivation, but it is
suggested to use suitable and highly suitable area for this purpose, because marginally class did not give optimum production.
Many potencies of existing fish were possible to develop “kejapung” cultivation, because availability of fingerlings and location that support this
activity. But in fact, suitable area for “kejapung” has not been optimally performed yet, it may be caused by some influencing factors, such as less funding,
there is no professional investors to support “kejapung” cultivation system, poor infrastructure, as well as little local government efforts to use coastal resources.
While, analysis shows that this research area was suitable to develop “kejapung” cultivation.
Fishing production between fishing activities and “kejapung” cultivation is very significant. Hence, this research tried to focus on how all stakeholders to
develop integrated coastal resources availability. If fishing activities have been done continuously, over fishing will occur if not balanced with rehabilitation
through “kejapung” cultivation. The plotting of kejapung cultivation can be seen in Fig 4.22.
