On angling as an act of cruelty

Article Abstract:

The cruelty issue on angling made by A. Dionys de Leeuw implicates two views which claims that anglers are not indeed cruel people and that they just innocently engaged in an activity that is cruel. However, the argument is claimed to be a false premise since human activities are results of human character. However, the act of cruelty still depends on the purpose of the activity whether it's for enjoyment with a purpose or just for sadistical pleasure.

On contemplating the interests of fish

Article Abstract:

A. Dionys de Leeuw's assertion states that recreational fishing is not a fish-friendly sport. He contends that angling causes pain, fear and suffering to fishes. However, there is no proof that fishes are indeed capable of experiencing pain. On the other hand, de Leeuw has a point in saying that anglers do harm the fishes. It is only through eating that the act is being justified, being more important than amusement.

Alternative strategies for livestock-fish integration with emphasis on Asia

Researchers conducted a study to investigate the integration of livestock and fish culture based on a perceived polarization of production systems and markets for livestock in Asia. Researchers emphasized the intensification of traditional livestock and fish production components through the strategic use of imported nutrients as a promising strategy for smallholder livestock-fish production.
