Abstract
Blood cockle (Anadara granosa L., 1758) production in Sub-District of Central Kupang, West Timor, Indonesia, is the result of blood cockles catching business on an industrial scale household. Over-fishing of blood cockle has led to a drastic drop in blood cockles and encourage the catching of juvenile blood cockle, thus threatening blood cockle resource conservation and livelihood of fishermen community. This study aims to determine the priority of blood cockle aquaculture development strategy for the conservation and welfare. The research method applied is a survey method with the population is a blood cockle fishermen community. Data collection was used in depthinterview method with a guide questionnaire. Data was analyzed by SWOT–AHP combination (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats combined with analytic hierarchy process). Results of SWOT-AHP combination analysis show that the global value of the strategies, i.e. development of cockle aquaculture blood with a participatory approach (3.856); building partnerships for the development of cockle aquaculture blood (3.712); and development of blood cockle aquaculture business integrated with its fishery business (3.693). This study has determined the priority of blood cockle aquaculture development strategy for the conservation and welfare is development of blood cockle aquaculture business integrated with its fishery business.
