    Adding on to that, its not just the surplus produce. Its all the rest of the produce that’s unusable by us humans.

    When we grow something like corn, we’re only growing it for the kernels that we can consume. We can’t physiologically make use of the stalks, stems and leaves, but an animal like the goat? They’ll chew up anything green and turn that into usable calories we humans can make use of.
