    I agree, but can I ask what your solution is then for sustainable industrial farming? As far as I know, there doesn’t exist one. We literally have to spam small-scale/organic/lab-grown food, or continue destroying our land and environment with industrial farming practices. At least that’s the dichotomy I’ve heard

      The solution boils down to improving efficiency worldwide, there is a massive difference of crop yield rates between imperial core countries and the global south.

      Even between imperial core countries the difference between yield rates is massive, example: the most efficient farmers in the US consistently produce corn yields of > 30ton/ha yet the national corn yield is about 12 ton/ha, there is a ton of room for improvement.
