Abstract
Sharks and rays are among marine biota traded in local, national and international market. Muncar Subdistrict, Banyuwangi Regency, East Java Province is one of sharks and rays producing centers in Indonesia. In this region, sharks and rays have been utilized for generations. This study aimed to identify the utilization of sharks and rays at Muncar Subdistrict. Data were collected in October 2019 using the snowball sampling technique to gather information their utilization. The result showed that fishers at Muncar catch various species, ie 46 species of sharks and 26 of rays. There are 13 fishing vessels still operating to catch sharks, which use bottom longlines, drift longlines, and gillnets. Meanwhile, rays are mostly caught by gillnets or hand lines as by-catch. The fishing grounds were around Bali Strait, Kangean Island up to the waters of East Kalimantan, South and Southeast Sulawesi. The fishing season occurs throughout the year but catches decrease from March to April. Four actors are identified to utilize sharks and rays, those are fishers, collectors, pengembak (processors), and mlijo (retailers). All body parts of sharks and rays have economic value. Fins are important export commodity, meat are processed into smoked and salted fish, livers are transformed into fish oil, skins into crackers, cartilages into flour, viscera into feeds and teeth are for souvenirs. The utilization of sharks and rays at Muncar Subdistrict is zero-waste, with the products traded locally in Banyuwangi Regency, except for fins.
