Abstract

This study empirically assesses the determinants of aquaculture fish production in South Aceh District using multiple linear regression analysis. The study documented that, except for the number of fish seeds, the factors of land area, the number of workers, and capital had a significant positive effect on aquaculture production. These empirical findings suggest that to improve aquaculture production, fish farmers should possess adequate capital, land area, and the number of workers. The government must assist in providing soft loans by coordinating with provincial government-owned banking institutions, providing sufficient land areas by initiating conversion programs for vacant land into fish ponds. Various free of charges of the training program should be undertaken by the government regularly and continuously to enhance the capacity of aquaculture farmers to produce professional fish farmers who enable to ensure an increase in aquaculture fish production throughout the years. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
