This is wrong. Nearly all (source) of the soy the Amazonas gets destroyed for is animal feed. We give about one third of the global grain we produce to animals, we could end global hunger if we’d give it to humans. Plus we could reforest vast regions, so we don’t die, as a species. Go vegan please.
Soy cake can be used to produce textured vegetable protein (meat alternatives), tofu, tempeh, soy milk, protein powder, biofuels and bioplastics, for example.
Calling that industrial waste is just a complete joke.
The land could also be used to grow other crops for human consumption.

your land use map isn’t damning in my opinion: making food is a good use of land.

you can see soy cake, which would otherwise be industrial waste, makes up the vast majority of the soy crop that becomes animal feed

global hunger is caused by greed, not eating traditional foods
