For meat it means raising cattles etc and then sell the meats . So , it is both . Of course if people want to sell meats they will have to make the order from some party , in a way , that constitute indirectly asking someone to kill and sell it to you . If you are in business of selling meats , you want to get it cheap , so you will source the most economical or low-priced which means directly get it from butcher company .retrofuturist wrote: ↑Wed Mar 23, 2022 8:38 am Greetings asahi,
If you believe the Commentary, it seems to be equivalent to meat in terms of how it's regarded.
You can't make the meat and sell it, but if it's already been made by someone else, you can sell it.
Unless someone wants to suggest that the translation of the Commentary provided by Bhikkhu Pesala is in error.

Selling alcohol is somewhat unwholesome in my understanding .
