Indonesia’s population is the fourth biggest after China, the United States, and India. While a large population may positively serve as a resource to drive country development, it demands sufficient support to ensure adequate food and nutrition security. Production of marine capture fisheries, which has long been served as a reliance for food, especially for protein security, during the last 5 years (2015–2020) has been stable at around 6 million metric tons (MMT) and increased only slightly (0.98%) (MMAF, 2022a). With the stagnation in capture fisheries production, fish production from capture fisheries alone will not be able to meet the human population’s need for animal protein sources. Aquaculture production is, therefore, expected to play a crucial role in filling this supply-demand gap, as is the case with many other countries. This underscores the vital importance of aquaculture in addressing nutritional needs and the potential for the industry’s growth (FAO, 2022).
