Should All US Farms Be Organic?

Dave Roberts at Gristmill drew my attention to an op-ed by Deborah Rich of the Land Institute's Prarie Writer's Circle. Fascinating piece: Rich argues that instead of fighting whether to allow GMOs at any level, we should be discussing the potential for moving to completely organic agriculture. Essentially, organic ag. understands the role of agriculture with the larger environment; GMOs continue to contribute to the myth that we can do what we want with our natural resources without consequences.
