Abstract

The aquaculture business of Sangkuriang catfish (Clarias gariepinus) has significant economic potential and continues to develop in Sorong Regency, West Papua. This study aimed to analyze the income and business feasibility of Sangkuriang catfish farming conducted by the Pandawa Group in Mariat District and the Karya Lele Group in Mayamuk District. The research was conducted from June to July 2016 using a survey method involving five respondents. Data were analyzed using income analysis, Revenue Cost Ratio (R/C Ratio), Benefit Cost Ratio (B/C Ratio), and Break-Even Point (BEP). The results showed that production costs consisted of fixed and variable costs, with feed being the largest cost component. The highest income was obtained by Agustinus Nanang amounting to Rp20,937,000 per production cycle with an R/C Ratio of 2.9 and a B/C Ratio of 1.9. All respondents had R/C Ratio values greater than 1, ranging from 1.5 to 2.9, indicating that the business is feasible and profitable. BEP analysis also showed that the business could reach the break-even point at a certain production level. In conclusion, Sangkuriang catfish farming in Sorong Regency is economically feasible and has good prospects for sustainable development.
