Beje is a traditional fishing method in tropical peat and peat forests, to provide a source of food from traditional fisheries, relying on fluctuations in the movement of water or overflow of river water during the rainy season (November to March) by using a trap in the form of an artificial pond or special tools, allowing fish to breed in the pond and later harvested during the dry season when the water recedes (April to October).
