The Blue Economy is aligned to increasing marine economic activities without destroying the ecosystem and preserving marine resources in a sustainable manner.

Researchers use multiple linear regression analysis with the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) method and secondary data types in the form of numerical numbers which will be processed using Statistical Tests in Eviews software. The time series data used comes from the official BPS (Central Statistics Agency) website for 5 years.

Fish Catching and Fish Cultivation will have an even greater impact if the East Java Government increases new innovations such as implementing the Blue Economy on every coast where Fish Catching and Fish Cultivation occurs in East Java.
