Food self-sufficiency by country
What is this 7 food groups? Legumes and nuts? Starchy staples?
Seems like slop complete with begging to install some app.
What do you mean?
Plants are staples for everyone. The so-called Western diet, despite it being so meat-centric, still relies heavily on wheat, soy and corn in the form of bread and as components of processed foods. In developing countries legumes, nuts and seeds are major sources of protein. In India, practicing Hindus in their millions are vegetarian and rely on legumes and dairy for their protein.
This has to be made up. No way Australia for example (and many others) can’t produce surpluses of all 7 of these groups.
I get vegetarians and vegans arguing that you don’t need any animal products, but you don’t need to be one to recognize that dairy of all things is not necessary. Most people can’t even digest it well.
Greenland?
Being an autonomous territory of Denmark, Greenland is not seen as a sovereign country I guess.
Fair enough.
