Meat production requires relatively more land than crop production. Some people think that as land is becoming scarce, the world’s meat consumption should be reduced. What measures could be taken to reduce the world’s meat consumption? What kinds of problem such measures cause?

subject to change.

As a result

, as ,currently the lands all around the globe are becoming less and less in size, the

production

of

meat

over the world should be decreased or even frowned upon. While the most practical approach to

this

would be to levy higher taxes on the use of vacant lands by farmers,

this

can result in considerable damage to economies of the most countries in all corners of the world. There are a number of measures that governments of every stripe can take in order to slow down

meat

production

.

One

viable way is to put relatively higher excise duties on the

amount

of space that farmers are allowed to use within their own countries, which comes down to the shoulders of government officials. Put simply, if

one

has to pay a colossal

amount

of money for using the lands for

production

,

this

might lead to them branching out to other modes of business,

thus

leaving their current work. A good example is the Netherlands where an average farmer is required to pay an extra 5000$ for each hectare added to the previous

amount

of land. As

this

shows, it is the governments that can make a real difference.

However

, no matter how effective these steps could be, a lot more harm is likely to come in the wake of ceasing

meat

production

.

One

of the main problems deriving from halting

meat

manufacturing could be a deteriorating economy that most benefits from the sales of

meat

products

.

This

is in large part because, not only do these actions lead to a possible economic recession, but

also

cause ordinary people to suffer from a lack of

meat

consumption.

For instance

, Poland is

one

of many countries that get its cash flows through the export of

meat

products

such

as sausages and

meat

cans, so deprivation of their rights to sell those

products

would mean a stop in their thriving economy.

Thus

, attempts to reduce

meat

products

are likely to have adverse effects on the economy of a country. In conclusion,

although

some steps could be taken towards tackling the issue of

meat

production

,

this

might

further

lead to other more pressing matters that should be dealt with

such

as a potential loss of the main source of cash flows.
