Income Realization Concept for Sustaining Fish Balance: An Eco-Ethnomethodology of Fisherman Kawruh Jati
Summary
This qualitative eco-ethnomethodological study examined kawruh jati fishermen in Indonesia, analyzing how traditional ecological knowledge informs fish stock balance assessments and the relationship between actual catch and fish availability as a framework for sustainable income.
This qualitative eco-ethnomethodological research on kawruh jati fishermen aims to reveal the determination of fish balances. Balance sheet for determining fish potential with the reality of haul as a balance of fishermen's income. This reality creates real potential between haul and availability of fish. Therefore, the potential of fish haul using kawruh jati eco-ethnomethodology becomes an analysis tool. Data was collected through interviews and direct observation. The research results show that the reality of the haul is the main condition for income balance. Therefore, fish availability is the main value of fishing capacity that determines the amount of income realized in fishermen's exchange rate calculations. The realization of this exchange rate is based on the process of collecting one's income after sales. Conditions that make the preservation and continuity of marine resources or ecology a relationship that cannot be separated from intention or will. This situation means recording fish balances is realizing the fishermen's self-willed income and haul. This reality continues to bind or become necessary until that necessity is maintained as self-awareness for kawruh jati fishermen. This awareness means that fishing activities maximize fishing effort and availability of the fish itself. This realized balance can be used as a continuation of research to use an ethnographic approach based on participant observation as a complete source and an eliciting photography approach.

Integrating Traditional Ecological Knowledge and Environmental Science for Sustainable Lake Conservation: Danu Kerthi in Bali
Researchers investigated how the Danu Kerthi philosophy integrates traditional ecological knowledge with environmental science to support sustainable conservation of three upstream lakes in Bali (Beratan, Buyan, and Tamblingan). Through qualitative multi-site fieldwork with 30 participants, the study found that this traditional framework continues to function as an effective ethical and governance system for lake ecosystems, though empirical evidence of its ecological effectiveness had been previously limited.
