Abstract

Ciparagejaya Village is one of the villages in Karawang Regency that is directly adjacent to the Java Sea waters and is dominated by fisheries activities such as capture fisheries, sea product auctions, and processing of fish caught in the sea. The existence of weather factors and moon phases can affect fishing catches which have an impact on fishermen's income, purchasing power of fishermen's households, and the level of welfare of fishermen's households. The purpose of this study is to analyze the amount of fishermen's household income from the fisheries sector which includes capture fisheries and non-fisheries and analyze the expenditure of fishermen's households which includes food and non-food expenditures, and analyze the level of welfare of fishermen's households based on the Exchange Rate of fishermen (NTN) in May 2024 in Ciparagejaya Village, Tempuran District, Karawang Regency. The method used in this research is the survey method and this research was conducted with a quantitative descriptive approach. Sampling was done purposively by involving 96 boat-owning fishermen residing in Ciparagejaya Village, Tempuran Subdistrict, Karawang Regency. This study used primary data and secondary data.
