Victor P. H. Nikijuluw

Abstract


Tuna sirip biru adalah ikan berharga tinggi yang semakin kurang populasi
nya akibat penangkapan secara ekstensif. Ikan ini hanya terdapat di Samudera Hindia. Daerah pemijahannya diduga di perairan selatan Bali dan Lombok. Pengelolaan konservasi ikan ini dilakukan oleh Commission for the Conservation of Southern Blue Fin Tuna, di mana Indonesia adalah salah satu anggotanya. Kehadiran Indonesia sebagai anggota menuntut Indonesia untuk ikut melakukan konservasi terhadap spesies ini. Namun, Indonesia juga patut mengembangkan perikanan dan perdagangan spesies ini bagi kepentingan nasional.
