The majority of the plants humans grow through crop-based agriculture are fed to non-human animals

That's a lie. 2/3 of the world's crop calories go directly to people. One third of the world's crop calories go to livestock, but that's as the other user is mentioning, mostly crop seconds or parts of plants that we can't eat.
