    cattle get maybe 7% of the global soy crop, and most of that is the industrial waste from pressing soybeans for oil. we press some 85% of the global crop.

    edit: omg. I have another stalker

      Yes, you have a lot of terrible points, it’s no surprise people like to dig into your history to see what other shitty points you have made.

      I would love to see what study you have that shows that only 7% of global soy goes to cattle. Any research I have seen says that 70-80% goes to animal feed. Yes it may be processed for oils but that does not mean that it is not a protein source that is going to animals, when it could be going to humans.

                you aren’t get the part where 90% of that is industrial waste, nor the amount that goes to cattle.

                  How do you interpret “soybeans processed to soy cakes FOR FEED” as industrial waste. They are processed for digestibility, not as waste.

                    the soybeans are put in an oil press. the byproduct is what we feed to livestock. but it seems like you already understand almost no soy goes to cattle at all, so I don’t know why you keep arguing

          The fact that you have a giant combative disclaimer on your profile about what you do and don’t tolerate in discussions tells me all I need to know about you. Call it stalking if you like, but it doesn’t make you right.
