Ya and the only guys making the BUCKS will be processors and restaurants and grocery chains.
Farmers will get SFA as usual. Vegetable organic maybe, field scale grain does NOT work, see that across the fence every day. 100% weeds. But grain is carb is evil, corn is sugar, ethanol is energy losing, livestock waste grain/water, so eliminate all those and bam, too much real food again! Wow 50% of Midwest land will transfer ownership in 10 years?

How is your "orgimic" panning out this year? First year...beginner's luck?
And that yellow mustard, satisfied with the production results?
Haven't heard from you in a while.

Really only a trend in the wealthy nations.

You know sometimes I wonder if that isn't the way to go. U look at the costs and the RISK we all take for what? Nobody cares that isn't in this business. As long as theres food on the shelves you will never gain sympathy from a city dweller. Most have no clue what our costs are and the slim margins we deal with. All they see is the shiney machinery and vehicles we drive and say What does that cost? If u can afford to have expensive stuff like that u must be doing well. Those people have to go hungary in order for them to show any concern for what we go thru. End of whine.

Wealthy nations as in Cuba?

Organic is growing because the only sector of the economy that is growing today is public administration. Meaning the wealthy today are government workers and they are the driving force behind the expansion of the organic sector. (I knew AB was done when polls showed the NDP polling a majority among high income earners) They live and work in fake environment and as such can afford to believe that which is not true as it is true. People like myself who are worse of today than 5 years ago have to find ever cheaper products in order to survive so there are no so called organics in this house.

You obviously "believe that which is not true as it is true."

For ****'s sake.... you may not like the production "method" of the food I produce but it is real food in it's rawest form.... What the PROCESSORS do with it after I grow it and how the "MANUFACTURERS" of "ready to eat food" mix those processed ingredients---is YOUR problem.

The attack is on the wrong sector of the food chain.

God I'm tired of being blamed for something I didn't do!!!

It would be good to hear Ado's opinion of organic. He is doing both methods of production which would be a very good comparison. There is the production costs, grain prices, and marketing/getting paid.
