Marketing analysis of jerbung shrimp (Fenneropenaeus merguiensis) in Pengujan Village, Bintan Regency
Pengujan Village is one of the villages in Bintan Regency where the majority of the population works as shrimp fishermen. Fishermen sell their catch directly to end consumers, but they sell much more to large traders because they are dependent on them. The difference in selling prices between fishermen and marketing agencies makes the marketing chain long. The study aims to calculate the marketing margin, fisherman's share, and marketing efficiency of jerbung shrimp in Pengujan Village. The research was conducted in January-February 2025 in Pengujan Village, Teluk Bintan Subdistrict, Bintan Regency. The study used a quantitative method, collecting data through observation, questionnaires, and documentation. The results showed there are five marketing channels, where channels I and II have a marketing margin of Rp0, while channels III, IV, and V have a marketing margin ranging from Rp46,000 to Rp46,667 per kilogram of shrimp. The fisherman's share in marketing channels I and II is 100%, while the fisherman's share in marketing channels III, IV, and V ranges from 64% to 65%. Thus, the fisherman's share in all marketing channels is considered efficient. The marketing efficiency of channels I and II is considered efficient because the percentage ranges from 3% to 4%, while the marketing efficiency of channels III, IV, and V is considered inefficient because the marketing efficiency value ranges from 7% to 17%
Characteristics of coastal ecosystems in Tering Bay, Batam: Analysis of mangroves, seagrass, and coral reefs
Tering Bay in Batam City is a coastal area with potential ecological changes if reclamation activities are carried out. This study aims to describe the baseline condition of the aquatic ecosystem by identifying the distribution of mangrove, seagrass, and coral reef species and analysing ecosystem conditions based on density, coverage, and damage levels. A mixed-method approach was applied using purposive sampling at seven mangrove stations, six seagrass stations, and seven coral reef stations. Mangrove data were collected using quadrat and line transect methods, seagrass through 100-meter quadrat transects, and coral reefs using the Line Intercept Transect (LIT) method. Results showed mangrove density ranged from 700 to 2,600 trees per hectare, dominated by Rhizophora apiculata. Seagrass coverage varied between 23.49% and 69.32% (categorized as sparse to dense), dominated by Enhalus acoroides and Halophila major, while absent at two stations. Coral reef cover was generally poor (0–8.2%), except for two stations categorized as moderate (23.9–28.5%). Overall, these baseline findings indicate heterogeneous coastal ecosystems influenced by anthropogenic pressures, particularly shipping and sedimentation. This fundamental information is expected to serve as a reference for sustainable coastal ecosystem management, especially in anticipating additional pressures from future reclamation activities

The highest average absolute growth of Eucheuma cottonii seaweed was at station I, which was 195.14 g, followed by station II 130.33 g and station III 88.83 g. The highest total production of Eucheuma cottonii seaweed was at station I, which was 4,726.83 g/m2, followed by station II 3,243.48 g/m2, and station III 2,233.25 g/m2
Microplastic characteristics of seagrass leaves (Enhalus acoroides) in Malang Rapat and Berakit Waters, Bintan Regency
The seagrass ecosystem is a shallow marine plant ecosystem with high biological productivity but is now threatened by human activities, especially the disposal of plastic waste into the sea, which degrades into microplastics measuring 0.3 –> 5 mm. This study aimed to identify the characteristics and measure the abundance of microplastics in the leaves of Enhalus acoroides in the waters of Malang Rapat and Berakit, Bintan Regency. The research was conducted in March–April using the purposive sampling method, with samples collected during the lowest tide using a 50×50 cm quadrat transect. Microplastic identification was carried out by scraping the surface of seagrass leaves, followed by processing with H₂O₂, Fe₂SO₄, and NaCl solutions, and observing the samples under a microscope to determine the type, color, and quantity of microplastics. The results showed three types of microplastics, namely fiber, fragment, and film, with the highest abundance found at the Berakit location at the 100-meter point of 9.07 particles/cm², dominated by the fragment type (5.67 particles/cm²). The identified colors were brown, transparent, black, red, blue, and green, with transparent being the most dominant (19.81 particles/cm²)

Biomass and carbon sequestration of mangrove stands, necromass and substrates in Lantebung Ecotourism, Makassar
Mangrove ecosystems are recognized as one of the largest carbon stores among other coastal ecosystems. Its ecological role is vital, especially in absorbing and storing carbon in various compartments, such as live stands (branches and trunks), necromass (dead trees and branches), and soil substrates rich in organic matter. The diversity of mangrove species, such as Rhizophora mucronata, Avicennia alba, and Acanthus ilicifolius, contributes variably to biomass accumulation and carbon sequestration potential. This study was conducted at Lantebung Mangrove Ecotourism in Makassar to evaluate oceanographic parameters, biomass values, and carbon sequestration potential of the three components as a basis for sustainable coastal ecosystem management. Sampling was done by purposive sampling method in a 40 x 40 meter quadrant transect, and all parts of the vegetation were analyzed in the laboratory using the gravimetric method to measure the dry carbon content. The results showed that the oceanographic parameters of the mangrove habitat were ideal and in accordance with the seawater quality standards for biota; the biomass of necromass, branches and substrates of Avicennia alba was greater than that of Rhizophora mucronata and Acanthus ilicifolius; meanwhile the compartment capable of absorbing the highest carbon in mangroves was the branches of Avicennia alba, while the lowest was the substrate of Rhizopora mucronata
The effect of deacetylation temperature on quality crab chitosan (Portunus pelagicus)
Crab (Portunus pelagicus) is a fishery export commodity, especially to Japan, the European Union and the United States. On the other hand, the crab part, namely the shell, is still not utilized optimally so it becomes waste. To make crab shells valuable, several studies have revealed the presence of useful substances known as chitin and chitosan. Therefore, this research was carried out with the aim of knowing the effect of deacetylation temperature on the quality of chitosan and the optimal deacetylation temperature so as to produce good quality chitosan. Method: This study employs an experimental methodology based on Fully Randomized Design (CRD) analysis. Several deacetylation temperature treatments (00C, 900C, 950C, 1000C, 1050C, 1100C, 1150C, 1200C) were repeated three times in this study's design. Analyses of yield, moisture content, ash content, protein content, and acetyl content serve as test parameters. Result: The results showed that the treatment using different deacetylation temperatures had a very significant effect (Fcrit > Ftable 1%) on water content, ash content, protein content, acetyl content and had no significant effect (Fcrit > Ftable 5%) on the yield. The optimal deacetylation temperature was 1200C, with a yield of 19.050%, water content of 8.340%, ash content of 0.022%, protein content of 0.198%, and acetyl content of 84.870%. Conclusion: The conclusion based on analysis that the best temperature deacetylation in producing quality chitosan crab is 1200C
