| Popis: | Shrimp is the prime commodity of Indonesian fishery exports, with the largest export volume and value among other fishery commodities. Therefore, shrimp farming becomes a very attractive business due to the high potential of foreign exchange generated. Approximately 55% of the Aceh population depends on the fisheries sector both directly and indirectly. This study examines the role of research and technology in the development of shrimp culture and its impact on post-tsunami farmers' economy in Aceh Province. The purpose of this study is to determine whether or not research and technology play a role in shrimp farming, analyze what technology research results are utilized, and their impact on improving farmer productivity and economy. The data was obtained from interviews with 47 farmers in four central to shrimp production districts in Aceh. Interviews results were then transcribed and analyzed using qualitative descriptive methods and path analysis. It can be concluded that partial mediation occurred between research and technology variables on shrimp production and the economy of shrimp farmers. |
