This is such small portion of all meat on the market, it really shouldn't factor into the discussion for how to feed a population.

- hollerith 3y agoYou know this how? Have you done a calculation? It seems to me that there are many grassy hills that cannot be farmed using tractors and to farm them using hand tools is too labor-intensive.
- hx8 3y agoThat's a great question. It's actually hard to get this type of data. I once tried to calculate something adjacent by looking at feedstock production, but actually a lot of feedstock is used for 'biofuel'. My knowledge comes from exposure to the agricultural industry. You might be able to find some animals grazing on a grassy hill, but that doesn't scale. In addition, most NA climates don't support year long grazing.
