Well done, I was going to comment regarding this but you covered it. I listen to agricultural reports whenever I'm in my truck and I don't think people realize the scope of food from farming and ranching. It's mind boggling the quantity and number of acres in production. Also, yields can be much higher than 200kg per head. Most people don't want to know what is in hamburger meat. I prefer it to steak because of the wide variety of cow parts
Also, avg. Beef cattle slaughter weight is closer to ~550kg and meat yield (boneless) is c. 63% of that in average, which gives us roughly 340kg/carcass.
36 million cattle are slaughtered in the US each year.
Fucking retard can't even look up some basic numbers.
