The reading and the lecture are both about farming tuna in cages to enhance their numbers and then selling them. More specifically, in regard to the passage, the writer presents three theories about the issues facing farming tuna. The lecturer disputes the claims made in the article. His position is that researchers found new solutions to deal with these issues.
First and foremost, the author of the reading states female tuna cannot lay eggs in cages. As result, farmers need to catch an enormous number of wild tuna. The article mentions that this procedure will affect and reduce tuna in the ocean. This argument is challenged by the lecturer. He claims that scientists found a hormone that can inject into female tuna which cannot make any effect on either tuna's health or the consumers. Additionally, he points out that by using this hormone tuna's population will not decline.
Secondly, the author suggests farming tuna is costly because tuna's diet depends on protein which is excluded from other fish. In the article, it is said that individual tuna needs 70 kilograms every day of food. Again, the professor specifically addresses this point when he states tuna took protein not only from fish but also from other types of plants. He goes on to say that plants can provide tuna with protein at a low cost. Consequently, the cost of producing tuna will not rise.
Finally, the author brings his argument to a close by suggesting that in cages tuna can infest by a parasite that affects tuna and decrease their growth. Not surprisingly, the lecturer takes issue with this claim by contending that scientists asserted that blood vessels can reduce by moving tuna to the deepest water instead of putting them offshore. He notes that because of the resources they needed to live blood flukes absent in the deep water this disease will stop.
