Paul, gotta call you out on this. 30 years ago you could have called organic a fad. Not today. In fact it's close to becoming main stream rather than a niche market. I remember back in the late 90's, I was ask to pick up something organic for a neighbor and having to ask where to find it at the store. They had a total of about 4 foot of shelf space dedicated to organic. Same store today has a whole multiple row section of it now. Heck even Walmart, who normally attracts people who can't really afford the inflated organic prices has a rather large selection. Walmart ain't doing that because it ain't selling. Walmart doesn't do a thing that isn't profit motivated. They know to the fraction of a cent what each items makes them.
As far as people starving? I doubt it. Way back before the GMO days, back in the 50s/60s/70s the government was buying up all the surplus and the American farmer grew. All the while they were producing 70% or the worlds food. Today the American farmer is only growing about 45% of the worlds food and farming far fewer acres to do it. We have millions of acres of former farm land sitting idle.
Now don't get me wrong. I too think that a lot of the organic thing is a farce too. But I think it's here to stay. People are concerned with what they eat. And once someone claims something isn't safe it isn't up to them to prove it. It's up to the grower to prove it is safe. Good luck with that.

Today's Featured Article - Upgrading an Oliver Super 55 Electrical System - by Dennis Hawkins. My old Oliver Super 55 has been just sitting and rusting for several years now. I really hate to see a good tractor being treated that way, but not being able to start it without a 30 minute point filing ritual every time contributed to its demise. If it would just start when I turn the key, then I would use it more often. In addition to a bad case of old age, most of the tractor's original electrical system was simply too unreliable to keep. The main focus of this page is to show how I upgr
