The path for meat: Farm ➡️ abattoir ➡️ butcher ➡️ consumer

Not a lot of value adding steps

The path for wheat: Farm ➡️ factory (make flour) ➡️ factory (combine with other ingredients, cook or not) ➡️ distributor ➡️ supermarket

Lots of value add, lots of transport, lots of profit to make, even if you don’t count the illness and medication caused by a meat free diet
