    almost no soy goes to cattle at all. and the vast majority of soy is pressed for oil. the waste product from that process is what is fed to livestock.

        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.

          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.
