- xyzzyz 6y agoYes, and most animal feed is human inedible stuff like grass and corn stalks. The water used to produce these is rain water that would fall and drain or evaporate from there either way.
- cortesoft 6y agoThat isn’t true. Most animal feed is grown with irrigated water.
- bluGill 6y agoNo,most is grown in the Midwest where there is no irrigation and shipped out. There is irrigation, but it's isn't most animal feed overall.
- adrianN 5y agoUnfortunately at least some animal feed is human edible soybeans grown where just a short while ago a rainforest stood.
