Organic food means you have not used synthetic (or chemically manufactured) fertilizer or pesticide. The most successful organic farmers use a method called Permaculture where they carefully construct a sustainable ecosystem of plants and animals. In this way food contains fewer pesticides, requires far less machinery, therefore costs less, does not require irrigation, and is sustainable in the long run. Yields are often lower but over long periods of time a given hectare will produce more than current industrial methods, largely because industrial methods require water for irrigation from fossil aquafirs, fertilizer from natural gas (which is a fossil fuel where demand has nearly exceeded supply), and seriously damages the environment leading to less fertile ground and ultimately infertile ground. It is likely that in the future small permaculture farms will produce most of the food for people, but not enough to support 7 billion.
Answer 3Growing food organically is easy for home gardeners, but more challenging on a commercial scale. See discussion section for a clarification on Answer 2. Answer 4The only reason it would be more challenging for a large corporation is because they lack the ability to suitably motivate their own people, and, they do not understand permaculture, ecosystems, the environment, or even organic agriculture. Also, it should be added that they do not understand the existing and future problems, and have no interest in anything more than a 3-5 year projected plan. The ROI period is beyond the vision of any corporation. This merely means that in the future farming will likely not be done by corporations (probably a good thing, considering the price of food that corporate farms produce versus small volume organic farms). It should not be forgotten that the food industry is the most profitable industry on the planet. Lastly, I think you will find that the discussion on the topic in the forums here is less than useful. You would do better to read about Permaculture from a text compiled by educated professionals. There are several good ones available. Try wikipedia and Amazon for additional information.Yes. You can grow any natural food organically.
Some farmers grow organic foods and many gardeners also grow organically.
It is impossible to know who the first farmer to grow organic potatoes was. While more farmers grow inorganically now, before the development of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, all farmers grew organically.
Organically Grown Company was created in 1982.
Eggplant may or may not be organically grown. If it is grown from a non-GMO seed and no synthetic pesticides are used, it is organically grown.
they grow by building reefs
McDonald's does not advertise that any of their foods are grown organically, and since organically grown foods are more expensive, it is unlikely that any of their foods are grown organically.
One problem GMO crops pose for farmers who do not grow them is cross pollination of GMOs in non-GMO crops, especially those that are grown organically.
