interesting to see that there are genuine farming experts posting about the real world,and drawing from combined decades,if not centuries of experience.
then you have 'googlespurts' with hours of web surfing and an emotional committment to regulating others.
for example real world grain growers know about plant diseases, and the need to breed resistant varieties,and use fungicides. it is like vaccinating people.if enough people are vaccinated,herd immunity lets the nutters get away without bothering. the nutters then act as the reservoirs and incubation sources of infection.
same as crops. people do not starve as a result of plant diseases,simply because of hard work [that is never thanked in google searches]
organic wheat in denmark was wiped out recently by a new strain of yellow wheat rust.industrially farmed crops produced food for people.
if the googlespurts succeed in regulating food production to make them feel happy in a fantasy world,the inevitable conclusion is something like what happened in 2010 in ethiopia,syria,turkey,iran,azerbaijan,morrocco,kenya and others. up to 40 % of their organic non industrial non chemically protected wheat crops were killed.
regulating people who know what they are doing by the commands of people who know how they feel is not a recipe for success.
the greenpeace nutters that vandalised the canberra scientific research sites had a spokesperson,that claimed she had to lash out,as she felt frustrated and demeaned that the researchers [who had spent years of dedicated and disciplined study at school,university ,then post graduate study for a phd in the field] would not obey her heartfelt emotions. so she regulated them herself under cover of darkness,supported by a pack of like feeling individuals.
do you want your childrens food supply regulated by googlespurts?.
