The influence of the number of fishing fleets on the growth of fishery production in an effort to determine shipyard clusters using linear regression

Shipyards are not only an essential part of the shipping industry but also function as a crucial element for carrying out various tasks in the process of building and repairing ships. The shipyard's involvement in this process makes it the most important element supporting the progress of the maritime industry as a whole. Therefore, this research was designed with the main aim of investigating and analyzing the relationship between the number of ships or fleets and production growth in the fisheries sector. The data used in this research consists of statistical data on capture fisheries covering the period from 2020 to 2022. This data was then analyzed using a simple linear regression analysis method to identify and understand the dynamics of the relationship between the number of vessels and the growth of fisheries production. Through the use of this approach, the research aims to explore the extent of the influence of the number of vessels on the growth of fisheries production in the context of the years studied. However, the results of the analysis show that there is no significant influence between the number of vessels and the growth of fisheries production. Nevertheless, these findings provide an important contribution to a further understanding of factors that may influence fisheries production dynamics. The implications of this research can provide valuable insights for shipping and fishing industry stakeholders in their efforts to optimize their strategies and policies to support sustainable growth in this sector
