| Abstract | ||||
| Small-scale fisheries (SSF) play an important role in food security and regional economic growth. The fulfilment of fisheries data is crucial in supporting sustainable and targeted SSF management policies, one of which is through determining leading commodities. This study applied an integrative approach based on the criteria of Location Quotient (LQ) (>1), Shift Share Analysis (SSA) (>0), and Specialization Index (SI) (>1). The analysis is strengthened by data validation through interviews with relevant stakeholders, capture and processing fisheries actors, distributors, and coastal communities in Tanjung Jabung Barat Regency. The results showed that there were 7 leading commodities from 46 species caught in the research location, including Sphyraena barracuda, Pampus argenteus, Pomadasys andamanensis, Macolor niger, Anadara granosa, Sardinella fimbriata, and Metapenaeus dobsoni. These leading commodities are managed according to fish characteristics and market demand such as export commodities, product diversification, and community food needs. Categorization as leading commodities suggested that these species have a great potential to be developed in the region. Therefore, this study would become a basis for developing sustainable fisheries management strategies in this area. | ||||
