CATTLE
Cattle convert vegetation into protein ... that is meat.
Raising livestock to produce meat has many different impacts on the environment which are not accounted for in the conventional measures used for economic performance.
GRAIN
The United States and Canada produce a huge amount of grain. It is a very big business and highly mechanized. Farms are increasingly managed using sophisticated technology to optimize the application of fertilizer, pesticides, herbicides and irrigation water. This is important because of the scale of the industry and the damage to the environment that has resulted from past practices.
There are ongoing issues because the main goal of agriculture is to maximize profit, and the prevailing metrics do not included appropriate measures for impact of people and the vnironment.
150 113 PALM OIL
Palm oil is a major ingredient in a wide range of processed foods. As the production of processed foods has increased the demand for palm oil has increased and the need for land has also increased. Much of the new land being used for palm oil production is being obtained by large scale deforestation. There are many initiatives to limit deforestation but this has proved difficult to do for a variety of reasons.

THE PRODUCTION AND DISTRIBUTION OF FOOD
PEOPLE USE MORE LAND TO PRODUCE FOOD THAN FOR ANYTHING ELSE
Food is the big link between PEOPLE and NATURE since most food is produced using natural land and natural processes ... supplemented to a greater of lesser extent by people invented technology
THE CONSUMPTION OF FOOD
NUTRITIONAL FOOD MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE TO WELLNESS AND QUALITY OF LIFE
Nutrients are important, and available in a wide variety of natural foods. A good food is one that enables wellness, but many processed foods have been developed so that producing companies are better served than the consumers. Fast food may be convenient, but it is not very healthy!

THE WASTE OF FOOD
MILLIONS OF TONS OF GOOD FOOD ARE WASTED EVERY YEAR
Some of the waste is caused by the inefficiency of distribuition channels, some by cosmetic standards imposed by supermarkets and some by laziness on the part of consumers. The truecost of this waste is huge, but ignored in conventional economic analysis

Nutrient/Calorie Density Scores
What is the nutrition density of the food you eat
Open L0700-SS-FOOD-Nutrient-Calorie-Density

To determine the ANDI scores, an equal­calorie serving of each food was evaluated. The following nutrients were included in the evaluation: fiber, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, zinc, copper, manganese, selenium, vitamin A, beta carotene, alpha carotene, lycopene, lutein and zeaxanthin, vitamin E, vitamin C, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, folate, vitamin B12, choline, vitamin K, phytosterols, glucosinolates, angiogenesis inhibitors, organosulfides, aromatase inhibitors, resistant starch, resveratrol plus ORAC score. ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) is a measure of the antioxidant or radical scavenging capacity of a food. For consistency, nutrient quantities were converted from their typical measurement conventions (mg, mcg, IU) to a percentage of their Dietary Reference Intake (DRI). For nutrients that have no DRI, goals were established based on available research and current understanding of the benefits of these factors. To make it easier to compare foods, the raw point totals were converted (multiplied by the same number) so that the highest ranking foods (leafy green vegetables) received a score of 1000, and the other foods received lower scores accordingly.
