Organic allows some really nasty chemicals that build up in the soil because they were used 200 years ago. Organic often substitutes plowing for weed killer - this is both bad for the air - more CO2 - and plowing destroys the soil.
if organic finds something good conventional farming adopts it.
conventional farming is developed at research universities. Organic is developed in cities by people who know nothing about farming, and often have an agenda.
not that conventional farming is all good. And even where it is better not all farmers do what is best. However organic is not a step better.
Thanks. Are there good links for this topic?
I'm not aware of anything. I have to read between the lines when experts (some of them university professors in agriculture) talk to figure out the above.
