Madhur Anand here- Great question! We would love to see more research on this and hope our paper inspires this work. Our current paper does allude to a substantial increase in plant-based protein. Evan Fraser and I, along with many other colleagues, are working on another paper that addresses this topic. Stay tuned!

We were not aware of any when we published our work, but we think that would be a great research question.

Hello, Madhur Anand here. This question goes a bit beyond the scope of our research paper, but it's still a good one. I am aware of many papers and books on this specific subject, including our University of Guelph colleague's book "Eat the Beetles!" (by David Waltner-Toews).

There are several questions here, but to be quick, and in reference to the published paper (which you can access for free online if you wish), we worked with current yield data, not potential yield data. We did look at differences between nations in this regard. In other words, what things look like today.
