I didn't realize how much more land it requires. We don't seem to have to expand our use of our garden for our tomatoes and onions. We get an abundance every year and we are organic.

I think this article is talking about large scale corporate organics, something that the organic movement never meant to be grown.

Local organic produce, especially those grown on a farm that practices polyculture doesn't have these down falls.
