Synopsis (short abstract) Fishery statistics of Indonesia available until 1972 were of rather limited use because of certain deficiencies inherent in the existing statistical survey system. A revised survey system was introduced to overcome these difficulties. The revised survey system covers not only catch and fishing effort statistics but also fishery inventory statistics and fish processing statistics. For the design of the sample survey a sampling frame was obtained through the complete enumeration of the 1973 Agr iculture Census which was undertaken by the Central Bureau of Statistics. However, because the produced sampling frame was limited to Sumatra, Java and Bali, the Directorate General of Fisheries conducted a supplementary frame survey. The standard survey methods used were sample surveys with both objective and subjective measurements for data collection. The standard statistical system has been introduced since April 1976 for the marine fishery and from January 1977 for the inland open water fishery and fresh water culture. The development and implementation of the standard statistical system are described and explained in this report. Examples of the forms used are included

    The 1973 fishery census of Indonesia was undertaken by the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) in close collaboration with the Directorate General of Fisheries (DGF). It primarily covered the marine fishery and brackish water fish culture in Sumatra, Java and Bali. However, owing to the poor coverage of the marine fisheries using powered boats, the CBS fishery census was supplemented by an additional marine fishery census undertaken by the DGF. Both censuses were taken by means of sample census s urveys, as described in this report. The main characteristics of the fishery census are: The CBS fishery census was undertaken within the framework of the 1973 agriculture census, and therefore took full advantage of the findings of the latter. As a result, not only the total population size was known in magnitude, which was needed for the calculation of estimates in the sample censuses, but also a useful sampling frame for subsequent surveys became available. The design of the census ques tionnaires was made by taking into account the tabulation programme and subsequent data analysis. This made it possible to make useful analyses of the findings. Until data from the fishery census became available, very little was known statistically about the fisheries in Indonesia. A full analysis of the census data provided a good deal of useful information which is indispensable for the planning and other aspects of the national fishery development programme. The report explains how the 1 973 fishery census of Indonesia was undertaken. The census methodology adopted was not always ideal and several simple but basic difficulties were encountered. These are illustrated herein. This report should be useful in the planning and implementation of similar census operations in other countries.
