It’s all about the money.
there really isn’t a whit of difference between conventional and organic or gmo free grains.
The good or the bad is in how it is processed and handled and fixed for the plate to serve.
The wholesalers and the retailers are perhaps the bad actors here.
Farming is farming, seed in the ground, see that enough nutrients are there, keep weeds and insects away, harvest timely. It doesn’t matter organic or conventional.
Some few chemical residues get through conventional farming, not much. Some few pathogens get through organic production, not much. Both have some pluses and minuses, but it’s all farming more the same than different.
Consumers are being misled.
It really won’t be honest of me to go grow and support and be an organic farmer, if I think it is overall worse for the land? Then I’d just be selling out?
No, I will continue to try to be the best farmer I can be. If I have an opportunity to be organic and be good at it and take care of the land, that is fine. If I can do a better job and create more, better, cheaper food for all and preserve my land, I will do so conventionally.
I don’t want to be a sell out. I’m not going to lie to my customers.

He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
