Analysis of the Effectiveness of the Implementation of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) for Recording Capture Fisheries Production at the Regional Fisheries Port Management Center (BP3D) Region II Tobelo

Abstract

Catch data collection is a crucial aspect in the sustainable management of fisheries resources. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of implementing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) in recording capture fishery production. A descriptive method with a field study approach was employed, including the collection of primary data through interviews and observations, as well as secondary data from relevant documents. The research focuses on the implementation of SOPs, supporting facilities, encountered challenges, and the data flow mechanism outside the official fish auction sites (TPI). The results indicate that the data collection of fish catches at the Regional Fisheries Port Management Center (BP3D) Region II, Tobelo, has followed national SOPs by utilizing an e-logbook as the primary tool, which facilitates real-time data recording and management. However, challenges such as limited technological infrastructure and the need for improved staff comprehension persist. The study highlights the importance of continuous training for personnel and the enhancement of technological infrastructure to support an accurate and efficient data collection system. These improvements are expected to enhance data accuracy, operational efficiency, and help with more effective and sustainable fisheries resource management planning in the North Halmahera region.
