Arad has been prohibited because of its damages to the environment. However, fishers in Muarareja continue to operate the gear even though environmentally friendly fishing gear (traps) have been granted as a substitution. The reason behind the rejection of substitute fishing gear is interesting to be investigated. Therefore, the study aim to 1) analyze fishers' perceptions of arad prohibition, traps, and environmentally friendly fishing gear program; 2) evaluate fishers' perception on policies concerning arad prohibition and fishing gear substitution; and 3) formulate the recommendations. This study involved 35 arad fishers in Muarareja Village who has been granted with traps as substitute fishing gear. Variables in this study are fishers' perceptions on arad and trap, the policy of arad prohibition, and fishers' perception on the environmentally friendly fishing gear program. Data were collected through interviews and questionnaires. Data were analyzed by scoring respondents' answers based on provided statements. The results showed that fishers did not agree that arad is not environmentally friendly, while the trap is. Fishers are also against arad prohibition and refuse to use traps as a replacement. Furthermore, fishers who received traps are still very dependent on arad and use traps only for alternative fishing gear. Recommendations for the policy of arad prohibition are arad should be allowed with special regulation, and further education is required for fishers to understand the correlation between unselective fishing gear and environmental damages. Recommendations for the environmentally friendly fishing gear program are that the provision of traps should be continued with several adjustments following fishermen's preferences.Keywords: Prohibition of arad, environmentally-friendly fishing gear, traps.

In 2020 the minister of maritime affairs and fisheries of the Republic of Indonesia issued regulation number 12 of 2020 concerning the management of lobsters, crabs and crabs in the territory of the Republic of Indonesia. There are several troubling issues, namely as follows: 1. approval of fishing gear previously prohibited from use, including among others shrimp, payang, cantrang and the like that are classified as trawlers; 2. policies that allow the export of lobster seeds. It is feared that this will trigger horizontal conflicts between fishermen, which are increasingly rampant, because so far conflicts have often occurred with fishermen regarding the use of fishing gear that is not environmentally friendly.

Jaring insang digolongkan sebagai alat tangkap yang ramah lingkungan mengingat ukuran ikan yang tertangkap dipengaruhi oleh ukuran mata jaring yang digunakan. Penelitian yang dilakukan selama 2013-2014 di perairan Kotania, Kabupaten Seram Bagian Barat bertujuan untuk menghitung kelimpahan ikan pada spektrum ukuran (abundance size-spectrum) berdasarkan habitat ikan pada waktu yang berbeda. Data dikumpulkan melalui logbook yang diisi oleh nelayan Dusun Pulau Osi dan Dusun Wael dengan daerah penangkapan di Teluk Kotania. Distribusi panjang ikan hasil tangkapan setiap mata jaring menunjukkan kisaran panjang yang tidak beraturan yang bisa menimbulkan selektivitas yang tidak konsisten. Ketidakpastian selektivitas jaring insang yang dioperasikan pada perairan dangkal disebabkan oleh perubahan pilihan habitat sebagai daerah penangkapan nelayan. Spektrum panjang menunjukkan distribusi panjang yang unimodal dengan jumlah ikan jenis ikan berukuran kecil tinggi dan menurun secara eksponensial untuk jenis ikan berukuran besar. Mengingat ikan besar mempunyai peranan penting dalam komunitas, dan kurang rentan terhadap jaring insang, kami menyimpulkan bahwa jaring insang adalah alat yang ramah lingkungan.EVALUATION OF GILLNET SELECTIVITY IN KOTANIA BAY, WEST PART OF SERAM. Gillnets are categorized as environmentally friendly fishing gear convinced by its selectivity. Study conducted at Kotania Bay, West Seram Regency, for two years (2012-2013) aimed to count the abundance size-spectrum on habitat for evaluating the catch of gillnets. Length distribution of catch for each mesh size showed irregular ranges, which may lead to selectivity uncertainties. Data was collected from logbooks filled by fishers from Osi Island and Wael. Uncertainty of gillnets selectivity which were operated in shallow waters was influenced by the fishers’ habitat preference that was distinct temporally. The size-spectra of exhibited unimodal length distribution with high catch of small-bodied species and lowered exponentially towards large-bodied species. As large- bodied species play important role in the community and they are less vulnerable to gillnets, we concluded that the practices of gillnet at Kotania Bay are environmentally friendly gear.
