SAPTOYO. Study on capture of small white shrimp (

Metapenaeus lysianassa,

de Man

1888) as A Management Application in Sungai Kakap estuary Kabupaten Pontianak West

Kalimantan. Under supervision of YUSLI WARDIATNO, UNGGUL AKTANI and

SULISTIONO.

Small white shrimp (

Metapenaeus lysisanassa

) fishery using setnets in Sungai

Kakap estuary increased from the year 1994 to 2005 and this sector gave a lot of benefit for

fishermen. The advantages of this shrimp fishery are providing work and income for local

people, providing of nutritious food for human life and local government income from tax

or retribution. However, the increasing fishermen effort to catch small white shrimp in this

estuary is estimated to be followed by decreasing of their productivities and declining of

CPUE trend. The objectives of the study are to obtain distribution pattern of small white

shrimp caught by setnet and to obtain CPUE (Catch per Unit Effort) trend of small white

shrimp fishery. Eleven stations were established in this site to learn distribution pattern of

small white shrimp caught by setnet and time series data of catch and effort was used to

calculate the trend of CPUE. The study got information that distribution pattern of small

white shrimp was caught in higher numbers in salinity interval 5 – 7‰. Bigger sizes of

small white shrimp were found in salinity 10 - 20‰. CPUE of small white shrimp caught

by setnet tends to decrease during twelve years.The study result is expected to give

information for management plan to manage of small white shrimp fishery.

UNGGUL AKTANI dan

SULISTIONO.

Perikanan udang putih kecil (

Metapenaeus lisianassa

) menggunakan setnet di

muara Sungai Kakap telah mengalami perkembangan sejak tahun 1994 hingga 2005 dan

sektor ini telah memberikan banyak manfaat bagi nelayan. Manfaat yang diperoleh antara

lain adalah penyediaan lapangan pekerjaan dan pendapatan bagi masyarakat setempat,

penyediaan protein hewani dan pajak atau retribusi untuk pemerintah daerah. Akan tetapi

peningkatan upaya yang dilakukakan nelayan untuk menangkap spesies udang putih kecil

diperkirakan telah menyebabkan terjadinya penurunan produktifitas upaya tangkap. Tujuan

yang ingin dicapai dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mendapatan gambaran pola penyebaran

udang putih yang tertangkap oleh setnet dan mendapatan gambaran kecenderungan CPUE

dari perikanan udang putih kecil. Sebelas stasiun didirikan di estuari untuk mengetahui pola

penyebaran udang putih kecil yang tertangkap oleh setnet. Data produksi tahunan udang

putih kecil dan jumlah hari tangkap (trip) digunakan untuk mengetahui kecenderungan

CPUE. Hasil dari kajian ini menginformasikan bahwa udang putih kecil lebih banyak

tertangkap pada salinitas 5 – 7 ‰. Udang putih kecil yang berukuran lebih besar pada

umumnya tertangkap pada perairan yang lebih dalam dan salinitas yang lebih tinggi. CPUE

dari perikanan udang putih keci cenderung mengalami penurunan sepanjang tahun. Hasil

kajian ini diharapan dapat memberikan informasi bagi perencanaan pengelolaan untuk

mengelola perikanan udang putih kecil secara berkelanjutan.

INTRODUCTION

Background

Kecamatan Sungai Kakap has a coast line facing directly to South Chinese Sea. Most of this area is covered by mangrove plants such as; Bruguiera, Sonneratia, and Nypha frutican. Therefore this area has high potency of marine biodiversity (Marine and Fisheries Agency of West Kalimantan Province 2002).

The potency of fishery resources in this region consist of; fish, shrimp, crab and mollusks. However, shrimp resource is more dominant exploited by fisherman at the moment. The potency of shrimp resources in this region consists of; small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lysianassa), yellow shrimp (Metapenaeus brevicornis), greasbaek shrimp (Metapenaeus ensis), red shrimp (Solenocera subnuda) and white shrimp (Penaeus indicus). Most of the shrimp resources are caught by trawlers except small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lysianassa) that is caught by setnet because this shrimp occur in shallower marine water.

Most of the people living in coastal area of Kecamatan Sungai Kakap are fisherman. They generally work as a fishing boat crew or work using their own fishing boats to fulfill their family need. Their catches are landed in Sungai Kakap Catch Landing Base that is facilitated by some infrastructures such as leaning pond, bridge, auction hall, warehouse, fuel station, docking, and other facilities. According to Marine and Fisheries Agency of Kabupaten Pontianak (2003) the number of fisherman in Sungai Kakap Landing Base tends to increase every year. The recent record in 2003 showed that the number of fisherman is 930.

Most of the fisherman in this region catches fish or shrimp in marine water of South Chine Sea not far from their village using gillnet, trap, long line, hook and trawl. This activity gives high income for fisherman but the operation cost is relatively high. Therefore, not all of fishermen have capability to catch fish or shrimp in offshore waters. Fishery resource in estuary water is the only choice for artisanal fisherman in Kecamatan Sungai Kakap. At present, there are several of fishing gears used by fisherman to exploit fishery resources in Sungai Kakap estuary such as setnet, trap, casnet, hook and other gears. One of fishery commodities which has high price in the market is small white shrimp (Metapeanaeus lysianassa). Therefore most of fishermen in this region are more attracted to catch it. Setnet is the most used gears to catch it. The use of setnet tends to increase during the decade. For example in 1994 the setnet number was just 50 units but in 2005 setnet numbers increased up


(17)

2 to 123 units. (Fishery and Marine Agency of Kecamatan Sungai Kakap 2005). The increasing numbers of setnets in this estuary provides more work for fishermen. It also increases total catch of shrimp production landed in catch landing base of Sungai Kakap. However, the condition does not automatically have positive relation toward fishermen productivity. CPUE trend of small white shrimp fishery in Sungai Kakap estuary is estimated to decrease during the decade. According to Naamin (1992) in order to achieve success in managing penaeid shrimp resources, the knowledge of biological aspects, such as name and recognition, life cycle, habitat, ambient parameter, distribution and spawning season, are very important.

Interconnected to the issues, there are some questions to be addressed to the shrimp fishery utilization as follow:

1) What is distribution pattern of small white shrimp caught by setnet in Sungai Kakap estuary?

2) How is size distribution of the small white shrimp caught by setnet in Sungai Kakap estuary?

3) What is the spatial distribution pattern of setnet operated by fisherman in Sungai Kakap estuary?

4) What is CPUE trend of the small white shrimp resource caught by setnet in Sungai Kakap estuary?

The objectives

Based on many issues of small white shrimp fishery and to answer several questions above, the objectives of the study are:

1) To obtain the distribution pattern of small white shrimp caught by setnet in Sungai Kakap estuary

2) To obtain the sizes distribution of small white shrimp caught by setnet in Sungai Kakap estuary

3) To reveal the spatial distribution of setnet deployment in Sungai Kakap estuary 4) To obtain CPUE trend of small white shrimp caught by setnet in Sungai Kakap

estuary

Research framework

Shrimp are important food for the country which gives a contribution to provide protein, work and also national income. The old regime polices in fisheries production is solely for production orientation, which may lead to over exploitation of shrimp resources. However, new paradigm in coastal resources utilization has


(18)

3 been changed into sustainable development. Therefore in managing coastal resources, some factors such as the potency of the resources, numbers of fishing gears, fishing efforts, biological information of the resources, etc are needed. Research framework of this study can be seen in Fig. 1.

LITERATURE REVIEW

Shrimp resources

Shrimp resources are essential food source that contains protein to support human life. This resource has been utilized by human since long times ago to fulfill their need. Shrimp resource is a renewable resource. However, this resource does not mean no limitation to exploit. Therefore it needs good management to ensure the sustainability of shrimp resource and to give contribution toward; protein, economic and community prosperity (FAO 1996).

Taxonomy and life cycle of small white shrimp

Small white shrimp taxonomically is classified as follows (Lovett 1981): Phylum: Arthropoda

Class: Crustacea

Sub class: Malacostraca Series: Eumalacostraca

Super order: Eucarida Order: Decapoda

Sub order: Natantia Family: Penaeidae

Genus: Metapenaeus

Species: Metapenaeus lyssianassa (de Man 1888) Common name: Small white shrimp

Local name: udang ambai (West Kalimantan)

Physically small white shrimp has reddish yellow color with brown spot on the body. The color of walking and swimming legs are yellowish white with blue spot encircles on the leg ankles. The color of shrimp tail includes telson and uropod is reddish yellow with nutbrown spot on the tail tip. The physical picture of small white shrimp is expressed in Fig. 2.

Fig. 2. Physical picture of small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lysianassa) This shrimp has a short rostrum with six teeth on top of rostrum and there are not teeth on underside of rostrum. Physically sex can be differentiated based on genital organ of shrimp. Male of small white shrimp is characterized with petasma that is located between the first of swimming legs (pleopod) and female of small white shrimp is characterized by thelycum that is located between the fourth and fifth of walking legs (periopod). External genital organ of small white shrimp is expressed in Fig. 3.

Shrimps occur and inhabit both marine and estuary habitats and adult shrimps spawn offshore in marine waters. The fertilized eggs become free swimming larvae and after several moults they enter estuary and coastal wetlands (Turner 1983). Wetlands within the estuary offer both a concentrated food source and a refuge from predators. After growing into juvenile the shrimps leave the estuary to move offshore where they become adults. The migration of shrimps from shallow estuary to deeper


(21)

6 marine water are influenced by tides, lunar cycles, maturation state, and estuary temperature change (Blackmon 1974). Life cycle of penaeid shrimp in general can be seen in Fig.4.

Fig. 4: Life cycle of penaeid shrimps ( Keyon 2004)

Morphology of penaeid shrimp

Shrimp is a large group of crustaceans that include varying in size from 2 cm to over 35 cm in length. In general, shrimp body of genus penaeidae is almost laterally compressed, the rostrum is usually composed and toothed and the abdomen longer than the carapace (Chaitiamvong and Supongpan 1992). Futhermore they also mention that morphological features of penaeidae shrimp includes the rostrum and the carapace, antennules and antennae, maxillipeds, pereopods and branches, pleopods. According to Lovett (1981), penaeid shrimp has characteristics that include gill numerous. Rostrum laterally compressed, usually well developed and rostrum has more than 3 teeth. General shrimp morphology is presented in Fig. 5


(22)

7 Shrimps have two pairs of whiplike antennae that contain sensory organs for taste and touch, which help shrimps to find food. Bottom-dwelling species are quickly attracted by the scent of dead remains. Many shrimp’s species also have bulging compound eyes that are made up of hundreds of lenses joined together. The eyes act as an early warning system against predators. Shrimps react instantly if they see anything moving overhead. Deep-sea shrimps have light-producing organs, called photophores, that scientists believe may help to identify mates in the dark depths of the sea (NOAA 2001).

General behavior and shrimp habitat

Shrimp is considered as a nocturnal biota. Shrimp prefer to forage at the night than at the day time. They also like to hide inside the mud or stick on the objects that sink in the water. Cannibalism behavior is common phenomenon in shrimp (Suyanto and Mujiman 2004).

Naturally the food of shrimp depends on their life stage. During larva stage, shrimp feeds plankton. In nature, adult shrimp feeds soft meat fauna, crustacea, worm, etc.(Suyanto and Mujiman 2004). Furthermore Thomas (1978) explains that considerable differences have been noticed in the food preferences of the various larva stages, juvenile and adult shrimp. The larvae in the nauplies stage do not feed at all, as they have food reserve in form of yolk. But protozoea larvae feed voraciously on phytoplankton. Adult shrimps feed on a variety of animal and plant material available in the area where they live.

Marine shrimps live in wide distributed marine waters in all over the world. Their habitat includes shallow marine water, estuary with low salininty. Some of them even inhabit nearly fresh water boundary and in contrast, some other species prever to live in open deep sea with high salinity. They ussually prever to stay in muddy substrat and others prever to stay in coral reefs (Dore and Frimodt 1987). Futhermore Macia (2004) explain that the habitats preferred by penaeid species are diverse, include mangroves, seagrass and macroalgae as well as estuaries, mudflats and sand flats.

One of good habitats for shrimp is mangrove ecosystem. According to Primavera (1997) mangrove ecosystem has a capability to provide food availability, as nurseries for shrimp and it also shelters shrimp from predator. Predation is probably the major cause of shrimp mortality because food supplies in estuarine habitats and mangrove are adequate and penaeid juveniles have a wide range of


(23)

8 tolerance to physicochemical factors. Protection from predation is offered by physical structure (e.g. seagrass blades and mangrove roots), substratum and turbidity, in combination with shrimp behavior such as hiding and burying. Futhermore Hossain (2001) explains that mangrove ecosystem is a suitable feeding, breeding and nurshery ground for various marine, estuarine and freshwater fishery resources. The net like spread root system of mangrove plays as a coastal stabilizer and binder of sediment and thus aids in preventing erosion in mangrove areas.

Lovett (1987) and Dore (1997) mention that habitat of shrimp Genus

Metapenaeus is rather difference with others. Metapenaeus shrimp ussually inhabits and be distributed throughout the shallow coastal water and sometime found in brackish water, creeks, swam and even in nearly fresh water. Most of the shrimp are classified as small shrimps and their distribution in the Indo West pacific region range from Pakistan, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand (Dore 1997). Beside that genus Parapeneopsis is also widely distributed in shallow coastal waters. On the other hand the members of genus Penaeus, Solenocera, Metapenaeopsis,

Trachypenaeus are all deep water shrimp species that do not commonly occur in abundance in coastal waters (Lovett 1987).

According to Aziz et al. (1983) the distribution of penaeid shrimp in Indonesia achieve 26 species. Penaeidae has 110 species that is separated in some places in the world. Furthermore that penaeid shrimps that inhabit in the marine water of Indonesia consist of Penaeus merguiensis, Penaeus indicus, Penaeus orientalis, Penaeus monodon, Penaeus semisulcatus, Penaeus canaliculatus,

Penaeus latisulcatus, Metapenaeus ensis, Metapenaeus affinis, Metapenaeus dobsoni, Metapenaeus elegans, Metapenaeus endeavouri, Metapenaeus monoceros,

Metapenaeus lyssianassa, and some species of Trachypenaus, Parapenaeopsis and

Solenocera.

Estuary biota

There are some definitions of an estuary because several geomorphologic features of coastlines. According to Nybakken (1997), an estuary is a place where freshwater and saltwater meet and mix. This definition implies the free connection of the sea with the freshwater source, at least during a part of the year. Furthermore Nybakken (1997) mention that most estuaries have soft, muddy substrates. These are derived from sediments carried into estuary by both seawater and freshwater.


(24)

9 Estuary is highly dynamic coastal environment which are influenced by physical, chemical and biological aspects, seasonal and tidal changes in temperature, salinity and other factors (Kennish 1990). According to Blaber (1997), the tropical estuary environment can be divided into four categories. The first is open estuary, the second is estuarine coastal water, the third is blind estuary and the last is coastal lake. Open estuary are never isolated from the sea and subject to tidal influence with all its physical consequences of regular salinity, turbidity and current flow changes, tidal prism, haloclines and intertidal habitats.

According to Kennish (1990), the structure estuary water can be classified into four groups during low flow condition base on average annual salinity of estuary water, as follow: the first is polyhaline estuary that has water salinity from 18‰ to 30‰, the second is mesohaline estuary that has annual water salinity from 5‰ to 18‰, the third is ougohaline estuary that has annual water salinity from 0.5‰ to 5‰ and the last tidal fresh water estuary that has annual water salinity less than 0.5‰

There are three types of fauna in estuaries; marine, freshwater and brackish water or estuarine fauna. Marine fauna that inhabit in estuaries have characteristic to be unable or barely able to tolerate salinity changes. These organisms are usually restricted to the mouths of estuaries where salinity is generally 25‰ or above. These faunas are often the same species found in the open sea. The brackish water or true estuarine species are found in the middle reaches of the estuary in salinities between 5-18‰ but not found in freshwater or in full seawater. The last fauna found in estuary is derived from freshwater. These types of fauna usually cannot tolerate salinities much above 5‰ (Nybakken 1997).

Furthermore Osborne (2000) explains that estuaries are not easy places to inhabit and few species have been able to adapt to estuarine conditions because organisms that live in estuaries to be able to cope with salinity changes. Species that have adapted often thrive there, developing into adult and they become productive populations. The composition of fauna variety and diversity in estuary depends upon in the size, depth, physical characteristics such as salinity and turbidity and also geographical location of estuary in relation to marine feature such as ocean currents, canyons and reefs (Blaber 1997).

Capture fisheries management

Fisheries management can be defined as the use of all types of information (ecological, economic, political and socio-cultural) in decision making to achieve


(25)

10 goals related to the use of fisheries resources (Karjalainen and Marjomaki 2005). The goals of capture fisheries management are complex and broad in concept, touching benefits such as increased food supply, increased earnings of poor people or increased export earnings are inherently good goal but the realization of these goal are complex because of the diversity of the fisheries (Royce 1996).

According to Karjalainen and Marjomaki (2005) fisheries management consists of some elements as follow:

1) Assessment (i.e. determining stock sizes, the extent of fishing efforts and fishing catches and recognizing alternative management objectives)

2) Decision making

3) Selection of harvest strategy and tactics

4) Implementation of chosen set of management tactics and measures, and 5) Controls over implementation

Furthermore ISRS (2004) explains that in order to achieve goals related to the use of fisheries resources, fisheries management has six basic options. These include restricting to:

1) The numbers of people or boats fishing 2) The time allowed for fishing

3) The fishing area 4) Gear or technology

5) The sizes that can be harvested 6) The species being selected

According to Karjalainen and Marjomaki (2005) in capture fisheries management, the extent of fishing efforts will be adjusted to produce a sustainable state, i.e. the maximum biomass, maximum fishing employment, maximum sustainable yield, and maximum economic yield.

The objectives of fisheries management

The objectives of fisheries management according to Wallace and Fletche (1996) are to ensure the sustainable production over time from fish stocks, preferably through regulatory and enhancement options that generate economic and social well being of the fishermen and industries that use the production. According to Reynold (2002), the goal of fisheries management is to maximize the economic opportunities and benefits from the State’s waters within sustainable harvesting limits. Within this


(26)

11 context, according to Bonfile (2004), fisheries management objectives can be defined into at least three categories as follow:

1. Biological and Conservation Objectives

In modern world of fisheries, management tries to balance multiple objectives that span beyond biological concerns. Standard indicator of biological yield is the annual weight or number fish / shrimp caught.

2. Social objectives

Social objectives are concerned with employment and equity. Fisheries are not only about landing fish and making money out of it, but also about employing people and making sure that those involved in the fisheries make a living that is adequate and sustainable.

3. Recreational objectives

For recreational purposes, both the catch and effort (number of successful fishing trips) might be important objectives. The total number of fish available, and in specific case of trophy fish (such as marlins, swordfish or tunas), the size of the fish will be outmost important. It may be possible that the standard indicators for recreational fisheries include the estimated total value of recreational effort and the number and size of the recreational catch.

According to Silvester and Pauly (1997), fisheries management may be viewed as a dynamic resource allocation process where the ecological and institutional resources of a fishery exploitation system are distributed with value to society as the overall goal. The fisheries management process shall include the resolution of normative and empirical debate to determine the direction of resource decisions where the final goal of fisheries management is to achieve a sustainable fisheries development. The sustainable fisheries development can be defined into some purposes as follow:

1. Productivity / efficiency, for examples; high fish production / revenue, high catch / effort, high foreign exchange earnings, supply stability and high returns on investment

2. Distribution equity, for examples; equal access to production factory, reasonable artisanal catches, reasonable fish prices, reasonable artisanal income, and high employment level.

3. Environment integrity, for examples; reasonable water quality, reduced pressure on critical habitats, reduced stress on biodiversity and use of nondestructive gears.


(27)

12 4. Institutional efficiency/effectiveness. The effectiveness of governmental

institutions in managing fisheries sector is very important to minimize budget loss and optimize the objectives that will be derived in managing fisheries sector.

Furthermore according to NSW Fisheries (2003), the goals of shrimp management interconnected with many issues on shrimp fisheries are:

1) To manage the shrimp trawl fishery in a manner that promotes the conservation of biological diversity in the marine water environment.

2) To maintain target and bycatch species harvested by the shrimp trawl fishery at sustainable levels.

3) To promote the conservation of threatened species, populations and ecological communities associated with the operation of the shrimp trawl fishery.

4) To appropriately share the resource and carry out fishing in a sustainable manner that minimizes social impacts.

5) To promote a viable commercial fishery (consistent with ecological sustainability).

6) To ensure cost-effective and efficient management and compliance in the marine water shrimp fishery.

7) To improve the knowledge of the community about the operations and management of the shrimp trawl fishery.

8) To improve the knowledge about the shrimp trawl fishery and the resources upon which the fishery relies.

Fisheries regulation

Reviewing to the symptom of overfishing that occurred in some marine water areas, government regulation which arranges the exploitation level of fisheries resources become very important. The aim of fisheries regulation should also accommodate all of important needs not only for human life but also for environment itself. According to King (1997) fisheries regulation are imposed on fishery to support a strategy designed to achieve predefined objective. Furthermore King also mentions that fisheries regulation also important to protect particular parts of stock. Small individuals can be protected by regulations such as minimum mesh size, legal minimum length and closures, and breeding stock can be protect by closed seasons. Government intervention to reduce the negative impact of fisheries activities can be undertaken through input control and output control. Input controls can be done trough; limiting the number of fishing units, limiting the efficiency and type of


(28)

13 fishing gear, closures, minimizing the mesh sizes and escape gaps in the traps. Output controls can be done trough; sizes limits (minimum legal lengths), rejection of females or spawning females, catch quotas, and enforcement of regulations.

Regionally, regulation of fishery resources established by local government of Kabupaten Pontianak at present are still limited. Most of fishery policies are orientated on tax and retribution from fishery commodity. For examples local government regulation established by Kabupaten Pontianak number 12 in the year 2002 is about retribution at fishery business (Perda Kabupaten Pontianak 2002). The latest regulation established by local government in the year 2006 is about fish auction retribution. (Draft Perda Kabupaten Pontianak 2006). Fishery regulation which regulates fishing gear deployment, preservation and protection of marine and fishery resources in this region are still not available.

MATERIALS AND METHODS

Study site

This study was conducted in April 2006 – June 2006, in Kecamatan Sungai Kakap, Kabupaten Pontianak, West Kalimantan. To study shrimp distribution in Sungai Kakap estuary, twelve stations were established in this site. The station was based on the salinity. The station position was measured by hand held GPS (global position system). The station deployment is expressed in Fig.6.

Fig.6. Stations deployment in Sungai Kakap estuary

The shrimp samples were taken from stations one time a week at ebb tide period with time interval 05.30 – 9.00 a.m. during 15 minutes operation and shrimp samples were counted and identified.

Respondents

In this study the information on the price of small white shrimp and operational cost to catch the shrimp is needed for economic analysis. The information was obtained by interviewing fishermen. The number of interviewed fisherman (as respondents) was determined by Tuwu (1993).


(30)

15

n = N / (1 + Ne2 ) Where:

n = Sample size N = Population size e = Critic value (10%)

The numbers of small white shrimp fisherman calculated by the formula were 48 people (Appendix 2).

Setnet

Setnet is the main gear to catch small white shrimp in Sungai Kakap estuary (local name: jaring ambai). Setnet materials consist of; the end pocket with 0.5 inch mesh size from pholyetiline, the middle pocket with 1 inch mesh size from pholyetiline, the front pocket with 1.5 inch mesh size from pholyetiline. To direct the shrimp comes to the pocket, fisherman constructs wing in each side. Setnet wing is built from bamboo or frond of Nypha frutican. The sketch of setnet is illustrated in

Fig.7.

Shrimp length

Shrimp length measurement was divided into total length and carapace length. This measurement was undertaken to obtain the information of shrimp length composition from stations. The length measurement is illustrated in Fig.8.


(31)

Shrimp weight

The weight of shrimp was measured by electronic digital balance (brand camry, model EHA121, with capacity 200 gram/128.7dwt/6.432ozt). The picture of this tool is showed in Fig.9.

Fig.9. Shrimp weight measurement using electronic digital balance conducted in the field

Environmental parameters

Environment parameters measured directly in this study were water salinity, water brightness, water dept, water surface temperature and air temperature. The measurements of environment parameters were undertaken after harvesting of the shrimp at every station during ebb tide. Water salinity of the stations were measured using refractometer, brand Atago S/Mill and water surface temperature was measured using mercury thermometer. Water depth was measured by stick that was sunk into the bottom of estuary water at every research station. The illustration of water measurement process conducted in the field can be seen in Fig. 10 and Fig. 11.

Measurement of sediment texture was taken from four stations, two points were undertaken at stations in the river water and the others were undertaken at stations in the inner of estuary water. The sample weight of each station was 600 gram. The total samples were transported to laboratory to identify the composition of sediment texture.

Data analysis

ANOVA two - way without replication is used to analyze carapace length frequency of small white shrimp caught by setnet during three month observations. According to Sokal in Nasrullah (1991) this analysis can be used to analyze the variance of two or more variables. Non parametric test is used to analyze the correlation between sizes distribution of shrimp and water salinity and to analyze the correlation between CPUE and effort undertaken by fishermen to catch small white shrimp resource in this estuary. According to Henderson (2004) non parametric test do not assume that the samples were drawn from a normal population. Almost no data on abundance or distribution of plants or animals will conform to a normal


(33)

18

distribution, so non parametric test correlation analysis can be used to analyzes are more appropriate for ecological studies.

Formulation of catch per unit effort (CPUE)

The sustainable estimation of shrimp fishery in Sungai Kakap Estuary can be predicted from the capture productivities or it is well known as a CPUE (catch per unit effort) done by fishermen in certain time. According to King (1985) that the basic principle of using CPUE data is that changes in CPUE accurately reflect changes in the abundance of fish in the stock. Furthermore Lynch (2004) explains that catch per unit effort is an important component of stock assessment as catch alone is often a misleading indicator of stock abundance. CPUE can be formulated as follow:

………. (1) Where:

h = harvest (kg) E = effort (trip)

Economic analysis of small white shrimp fishery in Sungai Kakap estuary

Total cost needed by fisherman to catch small white shrimp consists of fixed cost and variable cost. Fixed cost is required investment to establish effort unit. Variable cost is needed to pay the operational requirement for sailing. Total cost is formulated as follow:

TC = fix cost + variable cost ………..(2)

Total revenue is gross income derived from selling of shrimp production. Total revenue is formulated as follow:

TR = p. h ………(3)

Where:

P = shrimp price

h = harvest (production)

Benefit is net income derived from selling of shrimp production. Benefit is formulated as follow (Seijo et al 1998):

π

= TR – TC ………..(4) Where:

Π = benefit; TR = total revenue; TC = total cost E

The ecological condition of Sungai Kakap estuary

Based on the physical characteristic, Sungai Kakap estuary is an open estuary. This estuary is always influenced by sea water. This estuary receives fresh water


(36)

21 from Sungai Kakap River, Sungai Punggur Kecil River and Sungai Punggur Besar River. The mouth of estuary is 987 meters with total area is about 13.5 km2. The salinity of this estuary is 5‰ to 7‰, water dept 2.5 meters and water transparency 20 cm. The bottom sediment of estuary is grumosol soil from marine sediment and it was affected by calcium formation. Sungai Kakap estuary is surrounded by mangrove forest. They are Nipah (Nypa fruticans) and Berembang (Sonneratia caseolaris). This estuary ecosystem is habitat for some fauna such as; fish, shrimp, sea bird, eagle, crocodile, monkey, snake, and bees. Fig.12 describe estuary condition and fisherman activity

Fig. 12: Profile of Sungai Kakap estuary

Sungai Kakap estuary has high potency of fishery resources but it is also vulnerable from human activities such as; agriculture, fish processing industries, gas station, catch landing, fish auction hall, workshop, docking, water transportation and other economic activities.

Fishery activity is the dominant than others in this estuary. Fishing gears used by fisherman are setnet, gillnet, trap, longline, belat, rompong and cas net. The species of shrimp and fish caught by fishermen from Sungai Kakap estuary are showed in Table 3.

RESULTS

The numbers of small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lyssianassa) caught by setnet

During the study the numbers of small white shrimp caught by setnet is different from station to station. Higher numbers of the shrimp come from station V – X in the inner of estuary and the lower numbers come from stations I – IV in the river and station XI in the outer of the estuary (Appendix 3). The numbers of small white shrimp caught by setnet at each station is shown in Fig.13.

Figure 13 can also show the spatial distribution of small white shrimp in Sungai Kakap estuary. The shrimp distribution could be influenced by aquatic environment condition, in this case caused by different salinity. According to Hilbron and Walters (1992) fisheries resources are not spatially homogeneous. Densities of fisheries resource are higher in some areas than others.

According to Macia (2004), some environmetal parameters that influence the shrimp distribution in coastal areas are salinity, temperature, turbidity and water depth. In this study correlation between salinity and the numbers of shrimp catches is relatively high. This information is shown in Fig.14.

Setnet distribution

The operation of setnet in Sungai Kakap estuary was used more than twelve years ago. This gear is cheap and simple to operate. In addition the deployment of setnet relatively does not disturb for small fisherman boats. The numbers of setnet in Sungai Kakap estuary when the study conducted are 123 units. The distribution of setnet is illustrated in Fig. 18.

Catch per unit effort (CPUE) of small white shrimp fishery

The catches of small white shrimp landed in Sungai Kakap landing base tend to increase during twelve years. This might be influenced by the increasing of fisherman efforts. However, the increasing of shrimp production does not always reflect the increasing of fisherman productivity. The trend of CPUE has been long time used to express the productivity of fishermen (Berachi 2003). CPUE trend of small white shrimp is expressed in Table 7 and Fig. 19.

Economic analysis of small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lysianassa) fishery

Fisherman income using setnet in Sungai Kakap estuary is derived from selling of small white shrimp production. Most of small white shrimp catches from Sungai Kakap estuary are sold by local market in Kecamatan Sungai Kakap. Most of small white shrimp is consumed by local community for fresh food and dry shrimp. Dry shrimp is marketed to wider market. They are sold to Jakarta and Sarawak Malaysia via middle man trader. The average price of fresh small white shrimp per kilogram in local market at the momment is Rp.6000 while dry shrimp price per kg is Rp.60000. Fisherman income per trip is derived from selling of shrimp production after it is lessened by total cost per trip. Total cost consists of variable cost (operational cost) and fixed cost (depreciation cost of fishing gear). The average of operational cost per trip is Rp.34.400 and the depreciation cost of fishing gear is Rp.13000 per trip or equal with total cost per trip Rp.47400 (Appendix 13 and 14). The average of fisherman income from small white shrimp fishery during three months investigation is shown in Table 8.

Table 8 shows that the average of fisherman income per trip was Rp.25600. The influence of fluctuation of shrimp production to the average of fisherman income might be caused by catching season of small white shrimp fishery in this estuary which is not stable every year. Based on field investigation, peak season of small white shrimp fishery in Sungai Kakap estuary occurs in August (Appendix 17

DISCUSSION

The numbers of small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lyssianassa) caught by setnet

The individual numbers of small white shrimp caught by setnet in this site showed different results. According to sampling position the shrimp caught were high at stations close to the mangrove forest while shrimp caught away from the mangrove forest in the river and in the outer of estuary were low. Mangrove forest contributes to increase the amount of nutrient by falling leaf (Primavera, 1997). In fact the mangrove forest is supposed to influence the abundance of shrimp in the water and the roots of mangrove forest give shelter for shrimp from predator. The most abundance of mangrove forest in this estuary are nipah (Nypa frutican) and berembang (Sonneratia caseolaris). The mangrove forest area in this estuary is more than 40 ha. However, in several places mangrove forest is cut by local community for house construction and setnet. According to Castaneda and Defeo (2003) vegetated habitats are important in determining the distribution of penaeids in estuary, because they provide food and refugee from predators. Mangrove ecosystem is a suitable feeding, breeding, and nursery ground for various marine, estuarine and freshwater fishery resources (Hossain 2001).

Based on the salinity, the number of shrimp caught in Sungai Kakap estuary can be grouped into three. The first group was caught in the water salinity between 1 – 2‰, the second group was caught in the water salinity between 5 – 7‰ and the third group was caught in the water salinity 20‰. From this study small white shrimp is estimated to prefer staying in the water salinity between 5 – 7‰. According to Suseelan (1978) salinity is a limiting factor in the growth of most marine prawn species both directly and indirectly. Suseelan (1978) give example that

Penaeus indicus prefers the minimum of salinity 4‰, Penaeus semisulcatus prefers the minimum of salinity 19‰, Metapenaeus affinis and Metapenaeus dobsoni prefer the minimum of salinity 14‰, Parapenaeus stylifera prefers the minimum of salinity 25‰, Penaeus aztecus prefers the minimum of salinity 8.5‰.

The salinity distribution in the estuary and in the river influences to the distribution of small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lysianassa). In this study small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lysianassa) was found in around 4 km from coastal water to the river. This fact is supported by study of Azis (1979) that M. bennettae


(48)

33 interval 0.4 – 10.7‰. Furthermore Munro in the year 1975 found P. merguiensis in Norman River with salinity 0.46‰ in the distance 80 km from coastal water (Azis at al 1983).

The carapace length of small white shrimp caught was analyzed by ANOVA. The F statistic result is 1.09 < F critical value 5.14 (Appendix 6). This indicates that the sizes of shrimp caught have no different. Range sizes of small white shrimp caught by setnet were from carapace length 0.8 cm – 2.1 cm. The most of shrimp caught were from carapace length 1.3 – 1.5 cm. The fact found that the bigger sizes of shrimp are not in abundance. According to Berachi (2003) one of overfishing symptom could be learned from a tendency to catch smaller sizes of shrimp individually over the year. Learning from range sizes of the shrimp caught by setnet which was composed from smaller sizes of the shrimp, it might warn that small white shrimp population in this estuary is declining.

Sizes distribution of small white shrimp caught by setnet

During the study the bigger sizes of shrimp caught were found in higher salinity in deeper water. While smaller sizes of the shrimp caught were from the lower salinity area. The factor might influence to distribution of smaller sizes of shrimp is water current. According to Macia (2004) one factor that may contribute largely to the pattern of distribution of smaller sizes in near proximity to mangroves could also be the water current.

The correlation analysis between salinity and small white shrimp is positive. The result of correlation analysis showed that r statistic of shrimp sizes – water salinity 0.89** and r statistic of shrimp sizes – water dept 0.86** (Appendix 8). It means that water salinity and water dept have positive correlation with the sizes distribution of small white shrimp in this estuary. There is an indication that adult small white shrimp prefer to inhabit in deeper water with salinity interval 10 – 20‰ in front of the mouth of estuary or in coastal water. Water spaces with salinity interval 10 – 20‰ generally is used by artisanal fishermen using setnet for fish and gillnet.

According to fisherman the dominant shrimp species caught by trawlers in the surrounding of Sungai Kakap marine waters with salinity more than 20‰ are yellow shrimp (Metapenaeus brevicornis), greasbaek shrimp (Metapenaeus ensis), red shrimp (Solenocera subnuda) and white shrimp (Penaeus indicus). But in several cases trawlers sometime enter in coastal water with salinity 10 – 20‰ primary at the


(49)

34 night found small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lysianassa) in the limited numbers. Penaeid shrimp production from trawlers with tonnage from 5 – 20 gross tones landed in catch landing base of Sungai Kakap in the year 2005 were yellow shrimp (Metapenaeus brevicornis) 273610 kg, greasbaek shrimp (Metapenaeus ensis) 264830 kg, red shrimp (Solenocera subnuda) 226812 kg, and white shrimp (Penaeus indicus) 180720 kg ( Marine and fisheries agency of Sungai Kakap 2005).

The dominant bottom sediment of Sungai Kakap estuary is silt and clay. The percentage of sand content is increasing according to the distance of shore line. From the distribution of shrimp caught, it is supposed that silt and clay is preferred by small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lysianassa). The abundance of small white shrimp (Metapenaeus lysianassa) in silt and clay sediment might be influenced by their behavior to burry inside the estuary sediment beside there is enough availability of nutrient for shrimp. According to Ruello in Aziz (1983) the sizes of sediment texture less than 63 micron content high organic material (13.2%).

The study conducted by Aziz at al (1983) in Banten Bay showed that small white shrimp also was abundance in silt and clay sediment area. Furthermore Azis at al (1983) noted that other penaeid shrimps were found in different abundances in different sediment textures. P. monodon was not caught in sand and silt sediment but it was found in abundances in smooth silt and mud sediment. P. merguiensis was found in similar abundances in sand and silt sediment and it was found in silt and mud sediment. In addition Macia (2004) also noted that Fenneropenaeus indicus was found in abundance in sandy mud sediment but it was scarce found in mud sediment and Metapeaeus monoceros was found in abundance in mud sediment but it was scarce found in sandy mud sediment.

The sedimentation process in this estuary can threat the existence of small white shrimp habitat. It may be caused by mangrove cutting and the upland activities. The sedimentation might increase the water turbidity. At the moment the average of water transparency in the estuary is around 20 cm. The water transparency decreases along the river. The decreasing of water transparency might be caused by increasing of suspended material in the water column such as clay, sand, organic material and the others. Indirectly water transparency influences to water productivity. Decreasing of water transparency might decrease sunlight penetration to water column. Sunlight is needed by phytoplankton and water vegetation for photosynthesis process. Therefore water productivity could be decreased by sedimentation. For example from field investigation that the numbers of wood trap deployed in estuary water for


(50)

35 trapping giant fresh water shrimp (Macrobacium rosenbergii) are 200 units. Most of wood traps are from mangrove plant. The requirement of mangrove plant for one unit wood trap is in about 600 stick or equal with two of mangrove plants per unit or 400 of mangrove plants for the total of wood traps deployed in this estuary for one season or six months operation. The threat of mangrove cutting in this site could cause land erosion and it might change sediment texture and harm aquatic organism in the estuary.

Setnet distribution

To manage the setnet in this estuary it is important to have map. In the moment there is no spatial planning for setnet in this estuary. Map of setnet distribution is look like unmanaged and there is not sit line for water transportation. Therefore, the position of setnet should be regulated.

Catch per unit effort (CPUE) of small white shrimp fishery

The CPUE of small white shrimp tends to decrease from year to year. Decreasing of CPUE might be influenced by the increasing of fishing efforts. The

result of correlation analysis between CPUE and effort shows that r statistic (- 0.82**) was bigger than r table, this means that the increasing of effort numbers

has high negative correlation to CPUE values (Appendix 12).

According to Berachi (2003) the decreassing of CPUE, a tendency to catch more small sized individuals, a change in catch composition can be used to see overfishing symptom. However decreasing CPUE of small white shrimp caught by setnet in Sungai Kakap estuary might be important information to manage small white fishery.

The factors might decrease CPUE of small white shrimp in Sungai Kakap estuary estimated from several factors such as:

1) The increasing of effort numbers to catch small white shrimp and employment in higher levels in line with the increasing coastal population, poorness, lack skill and education and also lack mechanization to exploit the offshore fisheries resources have triggered overexploitation of fisheries resources in inshore fisheries which relatively has cheaper infestation and cheaper operational cost. The regulation on the limitation of effort numbers might become one factor to recover sustainability of small white shrimp in this estuary.
