Abstract:

This study aims to determine the differences in net revenue of small fishermen in Rebo Village that is affected and Deniang Village that is not affected by tin mining at sea in Bangka District and to determine the influence of the factors of working capital, fishermen’s education, fishing experience, duration of fishing, and mining dummy on revenue net of small fishermen in Rebo Village and Deniang Village, Bangka District, Bangka Belitung Islands Province. The analytical tool used t-test: Two Sample Assuming Unequal Variances and multiple linear regression using a static test and classic assumption test. The results show that there is a very significant difference in average net revenue between small fishermen in Rebo Village and Deniang Village. The net revenue of small fishermen in Deniang Village without mining at sea is greater than Rebo Village with tin mining at sea. It can be seen that the net revenue of small fishermen per month in Rebo Village amounted to IDR 3,127,577, while the net revenue of small fishermen in Deniang Village is IDR 3,604,444. Calculation results show that the net revenue of small fishermen in Deniang Village is 8% greater than in Rebo Village. According to the test results, the t-count value of 3.85759 is greater than the t-critical of 1.99897 (two-tailed test) and 1.66980 (one-tailed test) or from a probability value of 0.00027 (two-tailed test) that is smaller than α = 0,05, so it can be concluded that there is a very significant difference. Then, the results of multiple linear regression show that working capital, fishermen’s education, fishing experience, and duration of fishing have a positive and significant influence, but mining dummy has a negative and significant influence in Rebo Village and Deniang Village, Bangka District. It means that working capital, fishermen’s education, fishing experience, and duration of fishing will increase the net revenue of small fishermen and vice versa, tin mining at sea will have a negative impact on small fishermen.
