Take a look to a soybean plantation for example, biodiversity totally destroyed. Also, are you doing a physical main work?

The point is that you need multiple plantations like this to make enough feed for the cows to make equivalent calories/proteins.

You do realize those soybean plantations are not for human consumption, right? And that that's what is factored into the quoted loss of biodiversity?
