Informants were selected using purposive sampling, a non-probability technique, with five informants chosen based on specific criteria. Data analysis utilized the SWOT technique. Findings reveal that the IFAS matrix score is 3.77 and the EFAS matrix score is 4.13. These scores indicate that the shrimp farming industry in Gebang District is best suited to an SO (Growth-Oriented) strategy.
