6,000,000,000 (chicks) * 0.03 (weight of a chick in kg at birth) = 180,000,000 kg
180,000,000 kg / 10 (average meat consumption in North and Central Africa) = 18,000,000 people that could eat for a year.
- kgwgk 6y ago18,000,000 people =/= 18,000,000 million people (by the way, 30g of chicken at hatching are not 30g of meat)
- romanoderoma 6y ago> 18,000,000 million people Yes, of course! (Facepalm) > by the way, 30g of chicken at hatching are not 30g of meat) And of course again, it's just to prove how much actual good food it's wasted by simply not considering the alternatives 30gr of chicken at hatching become 1.5 kg of poultry in 3 months not killing them as soon as they hatch it's good, selling them to someone who's gonna eat them is even better
- kgwgk 6y ago> 30gr of chicken at hatching become 1.5 kg of poultry in 3 months 30gr of chicken plus many kg of corn (and, as discusesd in other comments, not all the chicken are equal when it comes to transforming corn into meat)
- notreallytrue 6y agoWhy corn when they can eat worms and what they find on the ground roaming free? Why everything must be reduced to an industrial activity when clearly it doesn't need to? I guess "teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime" is not a good advice either, how much fish food do you need in a lifetime? And who's gonna pay for it?
