| :D Have you folks seen the results of a study reported in the weekly Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences this week? A study conducted at the U.S. Dept. of Agriculture, Beltsville, Maryland concluded that organically grown tomatoes live longer and resist desease better thatn those raised on chemicals. I saw it in Tuesday's business sction of the Star-Telegram. The results support earlier evidence that organic farming is an alternative to "chemically intensive" agriculture said the authors of the study. Good news indeed and support for what we have been saying all along! |

It's about time they tell the truth! (LOL)
Disease and pest control is usually always related to an imbalance in the chemistry, biology, and physics of good sustainable soil building and companion planting. |
