    Agreed. I did see that farms that apply for or keep an organic tag must rotate the crops to keep the tag. Right now only about 15% of our (U.S.) crops purchased are organic but I would imagine with education and policies/regulations.

    It may be harder for specific crops like corn, but they supposedly have already seen nutrients rise greatly in situations where they have rotated the crops by such policies.

    Hopefully it’s a problem that can be solved pretty quickly.

    As with anything lobbying will promote misinformation and strawmen that will slow down fixes … because the health of others doesn’t matter more than having an extra profit.
