Managerial Capabilities and Practices in Mariculture Fish Production as Basis for Policy Framework on Sustainable Mariculture Industry
Subject area: Agriculture and Veterinary Sciences · Area of research: Management
Abstract
The objective of this study was to assess the degree to which the two Mariculture Zone Parks (MZPs) in Region 1 are operated by mariculture managers using various management methodologies. The descriptive-correlation method was employed in this study, which included all 45 MZP managers. The findings showed that the amount of management strategies used by mariculture managers is influenced by factors such as gender, employment status, civil status, and the number of personnel under their care. Furthermore, the data showed that the respondents' level of management techniques is unaffected by age, highest level of education attained, monthly salary, number of years as manager, and number of relevant trainings attended. The results also suggest that mariculture managers' perceptions of the obstacles associated with mariculture production are influenced by factors such as age, marital status, and employment position. Finally, the findings demonstrate that the obstacles to agriculture development are not influenced by factors such as gender, money, experience, training, or educational background.
