I grow corn, soybeans, bit of oats & cattle in the upper midwest on a small family farm.
I see that as a sad fad that will end up hurting many farmers in the long run.
People have voted, and they want cheap food. They want to spend their money on big screen TVs and Blueray. Not on food.
As you mention, it is the universities & some media - not real people - who are all pushy pushy on this topic.
A few farmers will invest in it, which takes almost a decade to recoup the investment.
When interest is lost in it, and the universities catch the next fad dropping this one, those small farmers who invested in this 'new' idea will be left high & dry.
It's hard to get non-gmo contracts on corn & soybeans - in this ecconomy real people don't have real money to spend on 'special' food that is the equal of any other food. That is how the average person buying food is going to feel.
For those that make organic work for them, and have built up a customer base - good for them. Applaud them.
This media push by universities and Holleywood media is a false god that will overwhem and harm you in the long run.
