Sure but keep in mind Stefano that much of humanity and most wild beasts are
always hungry.  I hear the world human population is coming up on 7 billion
last October.  My memories are still fresh from a dozen years ago of
reaching 6 billion.  We wouldn't be very far off if we say in general,
humankind lives on rice and potatoes.

 

Regarding my previous BOTECs, low end food is about twice the cost of high
end electricity, with high end unprocessed food cost about 100 times the
cost of low end electricity.  Anyone else get those numbers?
