JAKARTA - The Ministry of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries (KKP) is preparing an initial revitalization of around 20,000 hectares of ponds on the North Java Coast (Pantura) to increase the productivity of aquaculture fisheries.

"We have recorded the area of the ponds in Pantura around 78,550 hectares. For the initial phase, revitalization will begin around 20,000 hectares," said Director General of Fisheries Budi Daya KKP Tb. Haeru Rahayu at a press conference on the achievements of the marine and fisheries sector in Jakarta, Monday, quoted by Antara.

He explained that the initial stage of revitalization would be carried out in four regencies, namely Bekasi, Karawang, Subang, and Indramayu.

According to Haeru, the productivity of the ponds in the area is currently still low.
