Currently, government encourages collection fishing operations through three schemes, namely results of fish unloading at ports, independent reported by fishermen (fishing logbook), monitoring vessels observers board. Integrating such one solution obtain sufficient for quantity quality. This study uses tuna catches from schemes longline Southern Waters Java, FMA 573. aims analyze differences between established standards with existing conditions parties’ involvement activities. The analysis show activities standards, affecting completeness quality resulting data. integration complementary significantly impacts fishery produced.
