 All right guys welcome back to the channel if you're new my name is Bobby guys I just landed in France super jet lagged, but that is not an excuse to not start our new series Called ask a farmer with Rob tongues Rob tongues is an Aussie food producer and he will answer all of your questions So don't hesitate and comment down below. Whatever you might want to know He will answer for you and now with no further ado Rob the question of today is who kills more animals vegans or carnivores The short answer to the question is eating grass-fed beef Gives you the least animal impact you get a lot of food from one animal and it has impacted on very few other animals So you get one death feeds a lot of people and doesn't affect much else and then there's a scale after that So the long answer is it really depends what you're eating if you're eating grass-fed beef That's the best you can do the worst you can do is grain-fed herbivores So cattle sheep and goats if you feed them exclusively grain and high quality grain That's the worst you can do out of everything So between that spectrum you've got other things will fall in there For example, you could eat the cereal or monocultured crops now that is bad If you're on a vegan diet, you're killing a lot of animals in a really bad way Because as soon as you put a monoculture in you strip away all the feeds so anything that relied on that feed Is suddenly been starved out or crushed up by the machine preparing the field the next thing you do is your plant your crop the small animals and birds and lizards come back in and start breeding up and Sometimes you have to control them so your bait and that kills a heap of animals And it kills a lot of non-target specific ones So you kill a lot of the hawks and eagles that come in and try and eat the small animals that are growing in that field Then you harvest so the food is stripped off you kill a heap more animals when you're harvesting and then what's left starves out So after your crop has been reaped after you've taken the grain off You are left with a desert That doesn't environment goes for four months, so there's no feed left for anything else anything that survived all those other processes starves out and Then you go back and repeat the cycle year on year Croping is a horror show. It's basically a slaughterhouse cranked up to 11 You have deaths from being crushed by the machinery you have deaths from starvation You have deaths from baiting and only one of them is quick and that's the machine going through the paddock Most of the deaths of starvation and baiting if you're eating exclusively grain feed cows You're doing way worse if you exclude eating exclusively grass-fed cattle and finished you are doing way better than anyone else so from an ethical standpoint just try and figure out where your meters come from ask and buy grass-fed Livestock and the way they die matters to a bolt gun to the head is way more humane than being starved being baited Or being maimed and crushed up by a machine as it goes through that mean that's your choices There's this is commercial food production the reality of it. You can't get away from it If you want to eat this is how it goes Commercial food production is the only way to feed 8 billion people
