Blogs will cover every element of food production and consumption globally and domestically. The food industry needs to be understood for consumers to make choices about their own health and that of the planet.
Did you know that over a third of the planet is used for agriculture? (34.5%) 7% is used to grow crops for us humans. 22% is farmed to produce animal feed for livestock and the rest – 5.5%- is used for livestock to graze on. The 27.5% used for animals produces 17% of calories (energy) against 83% from the area of crops for humans (7%) And the 27.5% for rearing animals creates just 37% of protein against the 63% from the crops for humans (7%) You don’t have to be a vegetarian or a vegan to recognise the imbalance in the land use for food on this planet! Do you think this is sensible?
