People working in the meat industry: could/can you actually feel the effects of the rise of veganism of the last ~10 years? How (much) did it affect the area you work in?

Lamb is at 0 lbs/y? I find that and turkey to be suspiciously low

I believe it. I’m not American but Canadian (our diets tend to be similar) and before I became vegetarian I literally had never once eaten lamb, and turkey was only a Easter / Thanksgiving / Christmas meal. Keep in mind the number probably isn’t 0 but close to it, it’s just hard to see on the graph.
