Do you have a source for that statement and does it extrapolate globally for all
Meat.
The problem today is cutting down forest to provide pastureland for animals. Brazil’s rain forest deforestation is driven by converting forest to pastureland.
So the question is between now and say 2050 what is going to feed increased meat production? I’d bet on pastureland.
