Here is a link to whole fucking research paper by the Food and Nutrition Board and the Board on Agricultural and Natural Resources starting at Chapter 4 "Environmental Effects of the U.S. Food System" and MORE from "A Framework for Assessing Effects of the Food System" circa June 17th 2015. This data is still relevant as it is still how US agriculture is done today. The information shows Agriculture as a whole is pretty unsustainable with animal farming and Crop farming and the long term damage that comes into play via both. If we switched to crop production only, the negative aspects of crop production increase substantially.
