These dynamics are having a direct effect on agriculture, and especially meat production such as, livestock and poultry farming. Whilst modern livestock and poultry farming techniques are practiced by many worldwide, developing countries, and those with rapidly expanding populations, need to rely on more traditional methods, in order to meet demand.
