Abstract

Seaweed cultivation in Pari Island does play an important role in the community's economy, this is because seaweed cultivation has been the main livelihood for the people of Pari Island for a long time and for generations. The dependence of the people of Pari Island on seaweed is followed by high demand for this commodity, this is because seaweed originating from Pari Island has a more affordable and stable price when compared to seaweed sourced from outside Java.  Currently seaweed cultivation activities on Pari Island are slowly being abandoned, even since the last two years seaweed cultivation activities are no longer found, this is thought to be due to tourism activities that directly degrade aquaculture activities.  The purpose of this research is to look at the management status of Pari Island from the cultivation aspect and the impacts arising from these activities, besides that this research will also examine the sustainability status of aquaculture activities in terms of various aspects including ecological, social, economic, institutional, and infrastructure aspects.  Data were collected through in-depth interviews with the community in Pari Island, besides that data were also obtained from primary and secondary data related to socio-ecology. To assess the level of sustainability in each dimension, Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) analysis was carried out, in order to obtain a fairly sustainable average value of suitability which includes the dimensions of infrastructure (73.37), institutional (71.24), ecology (62.48 ), and the economic dimension (62,16). While the dimension that has a very appropriate sustainability value is the social dimension with a value of 76.33 which means it is very suitable.
