lautnusantara.com Indonesia, as a maritime country with abundant fisheries resources, has great potential in the global fisheries export market. The Indonesian government continues to strive to improve the competitiveness of Indonesian fisheries products in the international market. Here are some important points related to Indonesia's efforts to target the fisheries export market:

1. Government Efforts:
a. Improving Product Quality and Safety:

  • The government encourages the implementation of strict food quality and safety standards, such as HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) certification, to ensure that Indonesian fisheries products meet international market requirements.
  • The application of modern and hygienic processing technology is also a major focus.

b. Product and Market Diversification:

  • Indonesia does not only rely on superior commodities such as shrimp and tuna, but also develops other value-added fisheries products.
  • Market diversification efforts are carried out by exploring opportunities in non-traditional markets, in addition to the United States, Japan, and the European Union.

c. Eradication of Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing:

  • The government is committed to eradicating the practice of IUU Fishing which is detrimental, both economically and ecologically.
  • This effort is carried out through strict supervision in Indonesian waters and cooperation with other countries.

d. Trade Promotion and Diplomacy:

  • The government actively promotes Indonesian fishery products at various international exhibitions and forums.
  • Trade diplomacy is also carried out to open market access and overcome trade barriers.

2. Leading Commodities:
a. Shrimp:
Shrimp is one of Indonesia's most sought-after fishery export commodities in the global market.
b. Tuna:
Indonesia is also one of the largest tuna producers in the world, with various processed tuna products exported.
c. Other Fishery Products:
In addition to shrimp and tuna, Indonesia also exports various other fishery products, such as squid, cuttlefish, octopus, and seaweed.

3. Challenges:
a. Global Competition:
Indonesia faces stiff competition from other countries in the fisheries export market.
b. Climate Change:
Climate change can affect fisheries production and the sustainability of fisheries resources.
c. Sustainability Issues:
The demand for sustainable fisheries products is increasing, so Indonesia needs to ensure responsible fisheries practices.

With ongoing efforts by the government and industry players, it is hoped that Indonesia's fisheries exports can continue to increase and provide a significant contribution to the national economy.
