The significant contribution of the livestock industry to climate change has fueled the growth of the vegan movement, promoting the consumption of plant-based food alternatives. However, this has not been fully adopted in Indonesia, where meat consumption was significantly below the global average in 2021.

Citing data from the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Indonesia's chicken meat consumption was only 8.1 kilograms (kg) per capita in 2021, below the global average of 14.9 kg per capita.

Furthermore, Indonesian beef consumption stood at 2.2 kg per capita, below the world average of 6.4 kg per capita. Similarly, mutton consumption in Indonesia was 0.4 kg per capita, compared to the global average of 1.3 kg per capita.

Finally, pork consumption in Indonesia was 1 kg per capita, far below the global average of 10.8 kg per capita. However, this low pork consumption is understandable given that the majority of the Indonesian population is Muslim.

Meat consumption is also linked to living standards, dietary habits, and livestock production. According to the OECD, increased demand for meat can be an indicator of rising national income.
