Abstract

This study aims to analyze the system development and institutional principles in the framework of the development of the seaweed agribusiness system. This study was conducted in the Takalar Regency and Pangkep Regency areas as centers of production of marine seaweed and ponds in South Sulawesi. The research method used in this research is a case study with descriptive data analysis. The results showed that in these two areas there were around 62 BUMDes in Takalar Regency which spread over eight sub-districts, and 55 BUMDes in Pangkep Regency spread over 12 sub-districts. In general, BUMDes are declared to be actively operating as rural business groups (units) but are still not properly institutionalized. The dominant BUMDes businesses still revolve around small-scale savings and loan businesses. Observations in two BUMdes at seaweed production centers, namely in Laikang, Takalar Regency, and in Pitusunggu, Pangkep Regency, BUMDes management has not had much contact with seaweed agribusiness activities. Business units related to seaweed in BUMDes are mainly in Pangkep, namely in the form of processed food products (pastries) whose marketing is still limited so that added value and income are still low. Efforts to develop institutional systems, namely regarding persons, goals/interests, norms/rules, and relationships. Meanwhile, the principle of institutionalism focuses on existing conditions, shared needs, systemic thinking, participation, effectiveness, efficiency, flexibility, added value/benefits, decentralization, and sustainability. The two studies focus on agribusiness institutions, namely production institutions, post-harvest institutions, processing institutions, and marketing institutions.
