BKIPM facilitates compliance with these standards through rapid and innovative services, such as online and cashless systems.

What role does the BKIPM (Fish Quarantine, Quality Control, and Fisheries Product Safety Agency) play in ensuring fishery product standards?

BKIPM oversees the quality control and safety of fishery products by conducting inspections, certifying fish processing units, and ensuring compliance with national and international food safety standards. They maintain biosecurity, facilitate quarantine procedures, and ensure that products meet safety and quality requirements for both domestic consumption and export.

What are the benefits of obtaining HACCP certification for Indonesian fish processing units?

HACCP certification benefits fish processing units by increasing customer trust, improving the company’s reputation, facilitating access to global markets, and ensuring compliance with international food safety standards. The certification process helps ensure that fishery products are safe for consumption and meet critical control points.

What challenges does Indonesia's fisheries sector face in maintaining the quality and safety of its fishery products?

The primary challenges include maintaining food safety and quality, ensuring products are free from diseases and contaminants, and meeting the diverse regulatory standards of different export markets. Additionally, the sector must maintain biosecurity and prevent the spread of harmful pathogens.

How did the COVID-19 pandemic affect Indonesia’s fisheries exports?

Despite the global challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, Indonesia’s fisheries exports were not significantly affected. The export market, especially for shrimp and tuna, continued to grow, with key export destinations being China, the United States, and Japan.

How does BKIPM facilitate the export process for Indonesian fishery products?

BKIPM facilitates the export process by offering quick and efficient services, including inspections, certifications, and direct shipping arrangements such as the ‘direct call’ system that reduces shipping times and costs by allowing direct export routes from regions like Manado to destinations like Narita.

Which countries are Indonesia’s main export partners in the fishery sector?

Indonesia’s main export partners in the fishery sector include the United States, China, Japan, and several ASEAN and European countries. In recent years, China has become the largest export destination for Indonesian fishery products.

What is the significance of traceability in Indonesia’s fishery product supply chain?

Traceability ensures that the origin and handling of fishery products can be tracked throughout the supply chain. This is important for quality control, allowing quick identification of issues such as contamination or disease outbreaks. It also helps companies comply with export market regulations and protects consumer safety.
