It may surprise you that one of the reasons underlying hunger is also animals. The bigger surprise is; How much change we can make by destroying the problem created by the fact that animals consume too much.
Animals are not animals, lions, tigers, horses or elephants. We feed for meat, milk or wool. Cattle, cow, buffalo, pig, sheep, goat, etc. The number of animals is very close to the number of people. The number of bovine animals is approximately 3 billion, and the number of small-headed animals is approximately 4 billion.
Bovine animals eat 30 kg of feed a day and small animals eat 10 kg of feed a day. Their water consumption is 3 times the weight of feed per day, ie 90 liters in cattle and 30 liters in cattle. With this calculation, all of the world's animals consumed 125 million tons of feed and 400 million tons of water a day. While these animals consume all our resources like animals, we humans consume only 9 million tons of food a day and 30 million tons of water a day. This animal is 1 in 10, or 10%, of what it consumes. what does this mean?
We consume 90% of our resources for animals, but the total contribution that these animals provide us is only 5%. He weighs 90 pounds but he gives us 5 pounds of meat and milk. That's 90 kilos of agricultural product for 5 kilos of meat. The animals are fed for food, shrimp, slajı, corn, harp, various weeds, grasses, merla, saying that the agricultural land for all this is 10 times more than other agricultural supplies. If 10 decares of land are being processed for human beings, 100 decares of land that is processed for animals or left untreated as pastureland.
If we take all these fattening animals out of our lives, and if we feed completely vegetable crops, our crop yield will increase 10 times. If we produce 10 tons of wheat, this will be 1000 tons. This is the case for almost all agricultural products.
Let's not give up the complex, the result is people who eat meat and milk as well. Then we will reduce our meat and milk consumption by half. Even in this case our agricultural production will increase 5 times. This is for the whole world. What good is that? Why do we give up meat and milk?
Nearly half of the world is struggling with hunger or malnutrition, while the rest of the world is eating most of the quarters properly. The middle is just above the hunger limit. 10-15% of the world consumes sausages, chops, bonfils, sausages and salami, while the fattening animals provided by these products consume the agricultural products that the remaining 90% barely find. Whereas if meat-milk consumption is cut in half, the share of 90% of the population in agricultural products will increase by at least 5 times. 5 times more grain, 5 times more vegetables-fruit will be on the market. It will not be hungry nor poverty in the world. Only our rich people will eat less meat, what will not eat ham at breakfast.
Another benefit of this is that agricultural land will increase, drinking water will increase, drought and thirst will end. We will not be afraid of scarcity and thirst that seem inevitable in the near future.
