Abstract
In this study, we analyzed the feasibility of the floating fish cage system-fish culture based on environmental and economic aspects. The environmental parameters included physico-chemical parameters, such as water temperature, pH, visibility, DO, nitrate and phosphate and the study used fish farmers and fishermen as respondents, while the economic analysis covered calculations of benefit cost ratio and net present value. Results showed that all coastal areas, but north Tondano Lake, are feasible for floating fish cage system-fish culture business.
