Abstract

Rajungan (Portunus pelagicus) contributes over 50% of Indonesia's exports. Since 2016, Indonesia has begun conducting studies to monitor, evaluate, and report on its commitment to using the concept of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Government of Indonesia, through the Decree of KP RI No. 83/Kep Men-KP/ 2022, has established the Indonesian Fisheries Management Plan for Rajungan in the Indonesian Fisheries Management Area (WPP) 712 (Java Sea), including Rembang Regency in Central Java. With the existing problems in sustainable crab management, research is needed to analyze the perspective of key actors and supporting institutions in the crab agro-industry in the Rembang Regency. The method of analysis was carried out by collecting structured data questionnaires submitted to key actors and supporting institutions involved in the crab agro-industry in Rembang District on objects that support sustainable crab management. An in-depth review of the questionnaire results was collected, then data processing was done using the MACTOR application. The results describe the goal object that activates many actors as SDGs 14: life below water, where actors give their entire opinion on the goal object. There is a strong connection between the four goals, namely SDGs 1: No poverty, SDGs 12: Responsible consumption and production, SDGs 14: Life below water, and SDGs 17: Partnership and goals in the crab agro-industry in Rembang Regency. The success of sustainable management of the crab agro-industry in Rembang Regency is determined by the cooperation between crab fishermen, collectors, Miniplants, Fish Processing Units (UPI) that export crab, the Central Java Provincial Marine and Fisheries Service and the Rembang Regency Marine and Fisheries Service.
