The industry kills 90 Billions each year. The IPCC calculates with a decline over 20 years. So maybe people pay next year to only raise and kill 60 Billions and so on.
Farmers already kill them if they have a financial incentive like raising feed prices or falling meat/dairy prices.
Same thing that happens to every generation before them. Projecting your own complete lack of critical thinking or imagination onto others doesn’t mean they’re actually as stupid as you make them out to be.
Where are all the crops going to grow if land use and deforestation would disappear overnight?
On the billions of acres no longer needed to grow animal feed for a small minority of global calories and protein.
You’re trying to pretend meat isn’t over and order of magnitude less efficient than other agriculture and it’s just making you look foolish.
So then what happens to all the cattle if this comes to be? Your scenario assumes they all just evaporate into the ether never to be seen again.

Have a close look at this graph: https://ourworldindata.org/land-use#half-of-the-world-s-habitable-land-is-used-for-agriculture
“livestock takes up most of the world’s agricultural land it only produces 18% of the world’s calories and 37% of total protein”
