I'll wager the meat industry is but one of the many agricultural industries to do such a thing.

That's the problem with the separation between consumers and farmers - you never truly know what's going on behind the scenes.

The math of trophic levels (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trophic_level) means that you're never going to do better. The only really good options for improving the math is stuff like eating smaller animals (like bugs) or lab grown meat, and as the math shows, they're still going to be worse than a heavily processed plant alternative.
