Calling yourself a farmer does not give you the right to come on my property and pick my oranges, how is noise different?"
I am sympathetic, but noise is different. Noise abatement is a problem in cities and in rural areas.
Roosters are a particular problem because the animal right activists and some of their allies now think its cool to have the birds roaming everywhere. (If there are loud feral roosters all over the place then the matter of people keeping them becomes less acute.)
It is somewhat similar to the rhetoric we heard from that guy in lower Puna some years back who loudly insisted that everyone get along with the coqui frogs.
