Yes, lets forbid people that still strive for self sustenance, with small scale farming and animal rearing, to make an independent living.

Get your head out of your ass for a moment and when the oxygen rushes back to your brain realize animals are much more than meat and are an integral part of well managed and sustainable systems.

Animals make use of crops by-products otherwise wasted, manage vegetation and provide fertilizers, just off the top of my head.

And there are regions where no suitable crops can be planted and instead animals are the only means of survival and sustenance for people.

Back off and let people live.

There are better hills to die on than to persecute traditional farming.
