i don't think this is true. many breeds are ruminants, and no plants are harvested for them at all, as they graze. i don't think it's strictly true that any plant ever needs to be harvested to be fed to livestock.
Do you really think the majority of slaughterhouse animals are grazing? Grocery store and fast food meat comes from animals that live on corn, soy, etc feed, which is why places like the Amazon are being destroyed to grow crops.
I didn't say that.
what soy is fed to animals is almost entirely the byproduct of soybean oil production. that is a conservation of resources.
What are they grazing on?
say what you mean. I don't care for your interrogative.
