Abstract

The shortfin scads (Decapterus macrosoma) are Aceh's eastern waterways' most commonly exploited fish. Shortfin scads contribute significantly to the economic development of Aceh's fishery, making its survival rate an unavoidable condition. This study was carried out between November 2021 and January 2022. This qualitative description was designed to learn about the state of fish in Aceh's eastern seas and how they might be managed sustainably. The data was obtained through intensive interviews and literature studies. Aceh Province's Marine and Fisheries Office provides the statistics of Aceh's capture fisheries from 2006–2020, which is essential. Surplus production and dynamic system modelling were analyzed based on the STELLA 9.0.2 application. The results showed that the utilization status value (URy) of D. macrosoma was 80%. The sustainable management scenario of D. macrosoma fisheries for the following decade (2021-2030) predicts that biomass stocks 2030 will reach their maximum on an allocation of fishing efforts similar to the 2020 effort, which was 108 percent. Therefore, the D. macrosoma fishery resource is fully exploited. The implementation of fishing efforts, equivalent to the 2020 effort, implicates the sustainability of biomass stocks until 2030.
