Processing and transport is actually a relatively tiny portion of emissions. Take a look at the graphic - on most of them you can't even see the bit representing transport. Eliminating any and all meat production is way more impactful than any finessing you can do with crops.

To be clear, industrial agriculture can and should be done in a more sustainable manner. Crop rotation, cover crops, 'striping' fields with wild space, field rotation, etc. There's gains to be made there, they're just quite small compared to literally any improvements in animal ag.
