I don't know whether I understand the question but when mean means involve it takes the gerund:
I will go there even if it means going into danger

Hello, stranger.

Hi!

We have a three-day weekend here (Memorial Day). I took some time off from playing computer games to get on the site.

Re:

I don't think you can substitute involves for means there. BTW, I would write the sentence thusly:

If we reclaim more land we can feed more people.

I agree with both of you.

To reclaim more land means (we can plant more crops and we'll have more food) to feed more mouths.
