Well, yes, this requires production of similar scale at every stage of the chain. With animals it's animal food, drugs, various machinery in production, etc, which also cost less due to scale on which they are produced.

Green alternatives in this case have a potential to be honestly (without subsidies or anything) cheaper in the end.
