Bart,
I congratulate you for your thought provoking insights. Your comment
about "Focusing on materials instead of healthy system management", is
right on the money. That is why I think the organic system as we know it
today is not the *ideal* we in agriculture should be striving for.
Granted, organics has lots of good practises to offer, of which I have
benefited greatly, but there is just too many things that are
unsustainable in this day and age.
