Don’t Blame Fido For World Food Problems
Dr H R Guenther extension agronomist from the University of Idaho argues pets consume little grain that could feed humans. U S pet food makers buy significant grain plus scraps and by products, but grain used for pets is mainly animal feed grade. Distilleries use 8.8 billion pounds yearly versus 2.49 billion pounds for pet foods. U S grain production totaled 440 billion pounds in 1974.
