Abstract

This study presents information about the dynamics of industrial scale tuna longline development in Indonesia, especially tuna longline fisheries in the Eastern Indian Ocean. This study uses a descriptive method based on tuna longline enumeration data landed at Benoa port from 2012 to 2015. Benoa is one of the three main fishing ports in Indonesia, besides Nizam Zachman (Jakarta) and Cilacap (Central Java). It contributes the largest number of tuna catches to 60% of the total long-scale tuna catch industry in the Indian Ocean. This makes Benoa as the main barometer of industrial tuna fisheries in Indonesia. Industrial scale of tuna longline fisheries activities have dropped significantly to 76% from 2004 to 2015. Highest decline occurred in 2004 to 2006 by 43% followed by 2009 to 2010 at 41% and 2014 to 2015 at 19%. Enumeration data coverage in Benoa port is about 57% to 64% of total ship landing. Catch dominated by export products followed by local quality and bycatch products. The catch composition is dominated by four tuna species (BET, YFT, SBT and ALB) which reach 88% of the total catch followed by bycatch of 6.23% and fish with beaks of 5.46%. In period 2012 to 2014, fishing efforts are directly proportional to the number of ships and tuna production, but in 2015, capture efforts, CPUE and catch production increased along with the decline in the number of ships operating.
