Do you farm? There’s not enough chicken and cow crap in the world to fertilize all the farm ground. Every last bit of it has always been used already.

My friend has a 6 chicken houses and every 6 weeks a truck comes and picks up all the chicken-crap for around 30-50K. It is a very lucrative production. Then the chickens are sold to market. Land is key and it has be out and away from neighbors, (smell).

So, then be sure to include horse manure, and raise more farm animals, and use them intelligently in relation to food crops, (along with composting everything else that's possible for fertilizer) which could mean more food production, less hunger. I've read about demonstration farms who do make it work.

You realize there’s a difference between a demonstration farm and a 5,000 acre row crop operation don’t you? One of them feeds thousands with one man’s labor.
