Petani Ikan Keluhkan Harga Jual Lele

GUNUNG KIDUL--MICOM: Para petani budi daya ikan lele di Kabupaten Gunung Kidul, Daerah Istimewa Yogyakarta, mengeluhkan harga jual ikan itu saat panen raya.

Ketua Kelompok Pebudi daya Ikan Sumber Mulyo, Dusun Playen II, Desa Playen, Kecamatan Playen, Dilam Diharjo, di Gunung Kidul, Jumat (7/10), mengatakan, petani lele sering kesulitan menanggung biaya operasional, seperti biaya pembelian bibit ikan lele.

"Harga jual ikan lele saat panen raya tidak sebanding dengan biaya operasional pembelian bibit," katanya.

Menurut dia, beban biaya operasional yang harus ditanggung pebudi daya ikan lele di Gunung Kidul adalah biaya angkut bibit lele yang didatangkan dari Kabupaten Muntilan, Jawa Tengah.

"Bibit ikan lele yang dibawa dari Muntilan sering mati karena jauhnya perjalanan ke Gunung Kidul," katanya.

Ia mengatakan mengenai lahan budi daya lele yang menggunakan terpal, pebudi daya setempat tidak pernah kesulitan.

"Kendala kami hanya dari sisi pengadaan bibit lele, dan harga jual hasil panen. Keuntungan yang kami peroleh saat panen raya belum maksimal," katanya.

Menurut dia, para pebudi daya ikan di Gunung Kidul kebanyakan hanya menjual lele dalam bentuk ikan segar, sehingga belum mampu meningkatkan harga jual ikan tersebut.

"Anggota kelompok kami belum mendapatkan pelatihan untuk mengolah ikan lele, seperti dijadikan abon lele untuk meningkatkan harga jual," katanya.

Menurut dia, Pemerintah Kabupaten Gunung Kidul selama ini membuat program lele lahan kering sistem terpal dan memfasilitasi pencairan dana untuk budi daya ikan lele, yang bersumber dari Dinas Kelautan dan Perikanan.

"Kelompok kami mendapatkan bantuan dana budi daya lele sebesar Rp50 juta. Kami akan terus mengembangkan budi daya lele agar anggota kami bisa mandiri," katanya. (Ant/Ol-3)
