Why don’t you at the very least least try? I mean, it should be much easier than just giving me a canned response, right?

75% of all farm land goes to animals that only provide 10-20% of the common diet.
But feel free to continue using hard words for incorrect arguments.

You’re unfortunately deviating the argument to industrial agriculture used to (force-)feed animals, which is not what I was talking about. I literally said “graze on grassland” but you decided to respond to something else. But the fault is mine for trying. I’m not sure what I was thinking, this never leads to anything meaningful, just defensive bullshit.
If you want to educate yourself, feel free to investigate how grasslands work, how most of them cannot be used for anything else other than grazing (not arable), and maybe think about how ruminants actually lived and roamed the land before we started industrial/intensive agriculture and feedlots.
Interesting comment there at the end. English is not my first language and I’m just trying to use the words that best capture the meaning I’m trying to convey. But you do you, you must feel pretty good about yourself.

Even “graze on grassland” falls under this.
All the feed, water and land that’s required could be used for far better stuff.
And I seem to be more educated on this matter than you, but thanks.

You must be joking at this point. What else can non-arable grassland be used for? What water and feed is spent on ruminants whose only dietary input is grazing? I just have no words.

what is a better use for grass than to feed cows?
