Procedures of good fish hatchery practices (GFHP) are regulatory standards to ensure biosecurity, product traceability, and sustainability of hatchery operations in producing high-quality fish fries. The implementation of these practices determines not only the technical aspects of production but also some financial consequences for aquaculture practitioners. This study aims to evaluate the production performance and financial performance of the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) implementing GFHP in Kutasirna Village, Cisaat District, Sukabumi Regency, West Java, Indonesia. Non-experimental methodology was applied to compare the business performances before and after the implementation of GFHP. Data were collected from direct observation and information from interviews with a group of 8 fish farmers in the village. Production performance and financial performance were improved after GFHP was implemented by the group. The fry production increased by approximately 110% and the net benefit–cost (net B/C) ratio increased by 73%. The financial parameters indicate reasonable stability to a higher feed price and a lower selling price of the fry. This study shows a strong indication of positive outcomes from the implementation of GFHP, i.e. continuous supplies of good quality fry for tilapia production.
