There is indeed an industry for this, but it's no where near as large as it would need to be to eliminate a significant amount of the population.

You also have the problem that the population is spread over such a large area.

It seems unlikely that you'd get people to eat camels on a large scale if they're only going to be available for a short period while they're being culled.
