How about the world cup

The main profit of the crop is the animal feed. With less of that there would be less used. Also the oil is an inefficient use of land.

Do you have a reference for that. All the sources say the majority of the plant goes to animals.

So I was misinformed on the percent of soy that was used from the oil industry. It still stands that most of it rather than being consumed by humans is eaten by animals. And not only is soy a high emission oil but that high percentage of the soy plant only makes up a small fraction of the feed by cattle.

I stand corrected my bad.

What world are you on? Approximately 13% to 20% of the world's soy is used directly for oil (both human consumption and industrial/biofuel use). While nearly 77% of global soybean production is crushed for animal feed.

If you think different I'm open to being shown otherwise but it looks like you're straight wrong.

Rather that just being sinical why not try and find a reference? Here's another one https://ourworldindata.org/drivers-of-deforestation

What rubbish. The vast majority of soy feeds animal agriculture. https://www.wwf.org.uk/updates/soy-story

I play it online but I suppose it doesn't count. I've been playing some osrs so maybe that counts.
