regulations around fishing menhaden
The lecturer presents information concerning the proposed rules and regulations around fishing menhaden. While the article presents the argument that a ban on fishing menhaden is not a solution, the lecturer strongly disagrees and presents ideas refuting the reading.
First of all, the reading says the number of menhaden is falling because they are prey to striped bass. However, the lecturer explains that natural predators are a vital part of every ecosystem maintaining a natural balance. New rules will allow for this balance to be better monitored, and allow for a return to normal levels of fish in the waters.
Next the reading suggests that menhaden should not be banned from fishing because they are a vital source of food for livestock. The lecturer refutes this idea by suggesting that there are alternative sources of food. Given that menhaden are not the only source of food for livestock, new rules would not interfere with livestock production.
Finally, the reading brings up the point that fishermen will suffer because of fishing bans. While the lecturer acknowledges this as true, he beings up the point that this ban will be short-lived, and then the fishermen may be able to return to fishing menhaden with new regulations. He also proposes a switch in the type of fish they seek as a means of alternative income.
All in all, the lecturer provides alternative reasons for why a fishing ban would be good for menhaden. It would help rebalance the natural structure of the food chain. In the process farmers would have to find alternative feed, and the fishermen would have to seek out a different fish, but none of this is insurmountable.
