Yeah... larger operations are more efficient. It’s one thing I try to remind people who think humane meat could be a thing. Our planet is already getting destroyed by CAFOs imagine feeding people cows who each had an acre to themselves?
(My solution is just stop eating animals, better for them, us, and our dying planet)
- sampo 8y ago> larger operations are more efficient The amount of animal feed grown per acre of land should stay pretty much constant. Also the amount of feed a single cow eats, is constant. So in this kind of energetic respect, small and large operations can be equally efficient. But larger operations can mechanize and automatize more work, and thus need less human labor, and can save on salaries. In this kind of monetary respect, they are more efficient.
- projektfu 8y agoIf you keep making more and more food, the population keeps growing, and more and more land needs to be turned into farmland. Increases in efficiency only produce more food. This is not fixed by diverting farmland from animal protein to grains.
