according to your source, some 85% of the entire global crop is pressed for oil for human use, and about 90% of what livestock is fed is just the waste product from the oil production.

Yes, through processing it, it has a double use as animal feed and vegetable oil/for biofuel. Don’t know which is currently the most profitable one or main use. Used the source more to give context for direct use as human food (or the vegan focus the prior post had), which is kinda negligible.
