how does the world have such a high supply for food? (Read post)

355 views

I’m thinking about the meat industry for example. Sure, there are a lot of farmers, sure they have a lot of animals on each farm, but to me it seems people consume meat at a higher pace than an animal has time to grow to be an adult before it is made food.

Same I am wondering for bananas. It takes some time for it to grow, and if millions are a regular consumers, how can we still have so much available?

Because we grow millions of them.

We kill over 100,000,000 chickens a *day*. And we supply that by *hatching* that many a day.

Doesn’t matter if they take a year to grow as long as you started growing them a year before you need them.
