In a country of farmers, I'm not surprised!!
I'm hugely pro-veg but all that has really done is a reduction in eating meat. Perhaps a follow up study on what amount of meat and how frequently it's eaten is more nuanced? (or I could just be targeting studies towards my own acting to feel better.... )
We actually don't have that many farmers, ballpark of a few % of the emplyed in the country. Over time, farms got bigger and needed less workers to run them. But the news spends a disproportionate amount of time talking about changes making things hard for farmers.
I'd like to eat a greater proportion of plant protein, but I haven't found any that I enjoy as much as a steak 🙁
Re: steak: Fair enough, it's certainly a compromise :)
I suppose it's still a disproportionate part of our economy, even if it's less labour-intensive. Still a huge part of our culture, too (said the kid who grew up in Wellington!), although I suspect that's rapidly fading out over time
