AB  - Although, the policy of infrastructure support program from the local government of Barru district
South Sulawesi province Indonesia in the form of fishing gear and outboard machine has been done but the
change of income of catching business has not sufficient for household economy needs of small-scale
fishermen. The purpose of this article is to estimate the small-scale fisherman’s decision in selecting capture
technology (fishing gear and outboard engine power) in Indonesia using model estimation model logit equation.
The type of research used is explanatory method. The findings indicate that small-scale fisherman decision in
choosing fishing gear is positively influenced by the income of catching business and the number of members
covered and negatively by regional differences while the age of fisherman, education, side occupation and
regional differences have no significant effect. Another case of fisherman decision in choosing the power of
outboard engines is positively affected by the income of catching businesses and the number of members who
are covered and negatively by different regions. While the age of fishermen, the number of family members,
side jobs and regional differences have no significant effect.
