Regarding the remarks by William Robehod above: If you check out Rodale Farms in Pennsylvania, you will learn that large-scale organic farming is indeed possible without all that plowing and harrowing. A controlled cycle of fallowing various fields, rotating crops, using enriching cover crops, along with many more techniques developed over the years at Rodale, allow comprehensive farming and, far from depleting soil, constantly enrich it with copious amounts of green manure. Rodale has developed organic farming methods for large and small farms and holds regular and continuing classes where farmers can go to learn about them and get help in applying them at home. I urge anyone really interested in organic farming, whether on 300 acres or in patio containers, to check them out! We CAN do this – we only need the will and determination to succeed.

Yes, Maria, there is mounting evidence that what is spread on our land as so called “fertilizer” is nothing more than the nasty offerings from municipal waste treatment plants. The waste from those plants is then packaged and sold as mulch for your garden or even worse, farmers across the state of Pennsylvania are being paid (yes, paid) to use it as fertilizer on their farms!!! And, in this great state of Pennsylvania we now have Tom Corbett, Attorney General of the state, and running for governor, who is attempting to sue several townships whose residents “do not want to have sludge spread on the fertile ground in their respective townships. Just what makes Tom Corbett think he has the right to tell tax paying citizens they have to use the nasty sludge on their land? Please tell me why this is happening in this state — yes, I do know, follow the money trail and you will soon see Tom Corbett is (and has been) involved heavily with Waste Management who is the main provider (under several different names) of the stuff called “sludge”. Please, Pennsylvania residents: DO NOT HIDE YOUR RIGHTS TO CLEAN, FERTILE LAND BY SUPPORTING TOM CORBETT in the upcoming election!!!

the week of thanksgiving, those who care about the earth and their health could decide to buy organic only, even if just for that holiday meal. it would send a great message to big business. there is power in numbers, and the only way to change things for the better is to take action – what better way than by talking with your pocketbook? i am going to take action on this, and i hope anyone who reads this does, too. what a wonderful way to show true thanks that we still have a choice in what we eat and how we treat the earth.

Thanks Tina, I forgot about Mr. Nader. As they say”Out of sight, out of mind”. He needs to come back onto the scene much stronger and those of us who are into the natural and organic “movement”, need to support him.
Unfortunately, there is not enough of us to make a difference, or so I believe. I could be wrong, but if there’s enough of us out there, then we need to really start doing something instead of talking about it. Put our money where our mouth is, so-to-speak. Getting something seriously started, even though we may not succeed the first time around, is better than not doing anything at all.

Organic is great, and I am glad more people are hopping on the bandwagon to support local farmers who do the right thing for themselves and others.

Being on a limited income, it is not always feasible to buy organic, but, I do buy organic celery, carrots, apples, and berries. The meat and vegetables truly taste like real veggies and real meat and that in itself is worth the extra cost.

Being a cancer survivor, I understand the importance of “natural” and not synthesized food products. Fresh is better than processed anytime.

There already is a Green Party. Ralph Nader ran for President, representing them.

Whilst I agree that the amount of chemicals involved in modern agricultural practices are worrying I also have concerns about the so called Organic methods of large scale farming too.

The problem is not an easy one to solve because of the high demand for both food & fodder crops.

The obvious ideal would be a return to far smaller farms with less pressure on the land but of course that would leave the problem of meeting the demand.

So called Organic farming on a large scale is so hard on the land. In order to control weeds & pests the land has to be ploughed & harrowed so much that it is as dead as a door nail and the only thing making it continue to produce is the amount of manure & slurry that has to be pumped into it.

I am surrounded by agricultural land where I live. Organic on one side & conventional on the other. The Organic farmer’s land takes more of a hammering than the conventional one without a doubt.

I should say that the way forward is to accept that a happy medium needs to be struck between farming conventionally & organically & that the natural environment should be considered as a priority, ie leaving margins of unworked land so that the natural ecosystem can flourish and become an enhancement to agriculture.

I write to my congressmen about various issues and always get a reply. Since I live in a major agricultural state, the replies to inquiries about Ag issues invariably regard the economy of the state above the health of the people. A tough issue. Not sure how to convince them that a decline in health will more greatly affect the economy than reducing or eliminating the use of harmful chemicals. The loss of money from the chemical and pharmaceutical companies is just too great a threat, so they leave the blinders on. It has to change.

All good reasons to demand organic!
