In his scientific speech titled “Study of Penaeus merguiensis Resource Recruitment in the Eastern Coast of North Sumatra to Achieve National Food Self-Sufficiency,” Prof. Miswar highlighted the vast potential of marine fisheries on the eastern coast of North Sumatra. He emphasized the significant economic value of Penaeus merguiensis, commonly known as banana prawn, white shrimp, or jerbung.
He explained that the increasing market demand for Penaeus merguiensis has led to heightened fishing activities in the area. Prof. Miswar stated that this commodity holds tremendous potential in achieving national food self-sufficiency. Information on the population, distribution, and recruitment of Penaeus merguiensis in this region can serve as a foundation for sustainable management, ensuring domestic food security while contributing to national food independence.
