A lot of grazing is done on marginal farming land. For example land that is very dry or land that is very steep. So generally a statistic like 83% of the world's farmland doesn't make any sense.
Not sure if it is possible to count factory farming properly- that takes really good farmland and sends the production to animals.

- robocat 4y ago> A lot of grazing is done on marginal farming land. For example, New Zealand: ~55% is being used for sheep and cattle, and only ~2% of NZ is arable (see https://youtu.be/F_g6-4swJ_s https://youtu.be/F_g6-4swJ_s at 14:45) with a major part of the reason why explained near the 10:00 mark (weather in South Island).
