Sure it’s all in good will to farm organically, but without artificial assistance, it can really be a hassle and even a risk on profit. Strenuous labouring includes hand-weeding, and controlling insects with sticky trap-paper.

Jeff Clainson, an organic farmer from Sydney stated:

“It really does get tough without traditional commercial methods. When livestock become ill, it takes a lifetime to become healthy again, as oppossed to treating them with anti-biotics. Soil and fertilizers must be monitored so much closer.

 

Jeff’s main enticement for holding onto organic methods is the consumer demand significantly rising:  Up to 50% more expensive of the commercial substitute.
