Analisis Tingkat Kesejahteraan Nelayan Tradisional Berbasis Model CIBEST dan Penerapan Blue Economy di Pesisir Cirebon

Abstract

Nelayan tradisional pesisir Cirebon menghadapi kemiskinan struktural akibat keterbatasan akses permodalan dan ketergantungan pada tengkulak. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis kondisi sosial-ekonomi, mengukur kesejahteraan, dan mengkaji penerapan blue economy menggunakan Model CIBEST terhadap 98 responden di tiga kampung nelayan dengan pendekatan kuantitatif deskriptif. Hasil menunjukkan indeks kesejahteraan sebesar 0,52 berdasarkan garis kemiskinan BPS, namun kemiskinan materiil mendominasi pada pendekatan had kifayah dan nisab dengan indeks 0,68 dan 0,84. Terdapat kesenjangan antara pemahaman blue economy yang rendah (2,54) dan penerapannya yang tinggi (4,25), mengindikasikan praktik berkelanjutan nelayan lebih bersumber dari kearifan lokal. Penerapan blue economy berdampak positif terhadap penghasilan (3,79). Permasalahan utama bersifat materiil sehingga diperlukan penguatan permodalan dan edukasi blue economy yang lebih terstruktur.

Traditional fishermen along the Cirebon coast faced structural poverty due to limited access to capital and dependence on middlemen. This study aimed to analyze socioeconomic conditions, measure well-being, and examine the implementation of the blue economy using the CIBEST Model among 98 respondents in three fishing villages through a descriptive quantitative approach. The results showed a well-being index of 0.52 based on the BPS poverty line. However, material poverty dominated when the had kifayah and nisab approaches were used, with indices of 0.68 and 0.84, respectively. There was a gap between the low level of understanding of the blue economy (2.54) and its high level of implementation (4.25), indicating that fishermen's sustainable practices were rooted more in local wisdom. The implementation of the blue economy had a positive impact on income (3.79). The main challenges were material in nature, necessitating strengthened access to capital and more structured education on the blue economy.
