Except there are millions upon millions of acres used for grazing that
would not or could not be used for grain......thus allowing food
production where none would exist......There are many more millions of
acres used for hay, alfalfa etc. that are not ideal or useful for other
food production.

We as well have no significant or appreciable need for more grain
production as the world has never been as dependably well fed.....optimum
calorie production is really only significant at the sustenance existence
level.....thankfully we are not. Rod

I disagree with *all* of these assertions, from a variety of povs, much too
lengthy to go into on ahr.
Two points, however.
1. There are myriads of other problems with cattle production.

Who said "cattle"?

*Goats* can be raised on land that's practically useless for any other
purpose, and in fact are *far* more efficient than cattle at converting
vegetable matter into meat.
