What harmful chemicals are there in organic farming?

  • i know that intensive farming uses pesticides and fertilisers but in a past test paper,it says that organic farming also does

  • Answer:

    Organic farming also uses pesticides and fertilizer. The bio-geo-chemical issues are the same for all farming enterprises (delivery of nutrient, control of pests, establishment of crop, utilization of resources, etc, etc.). The honest truth: Organic farming is fantasy, and treated as a religion. The "exposure" of toxic elements to the clientele is the same, it is just a different set of potential exposures.

You have little to no control over near by runoff or wind drift from growing crops or livestock close enough to effect your property...And also as the other poster said...there are many toxic mixtures that exist naturally in nature.

Some pesticides such as those made with nicotine or extracts of castor beans are natural, yet very toxic to humans. The last three vegetable food poisonings in the US (E coli on lettuce, carrots, spinich) were caused by using waste water from livestock operations. Manure is the same stuff organic gardners use for fertilizer.
