Robert Paarlberg’s points:
- Modern conventional farming:
- High productivity > reduce hunger & poverty [82-
83]
- Higher safety [83]
- More sustainable than organic; less land needed
(84)
- Organic farming:
- Low productivity [84]
- Food not better
- misleading: less development funding [85]
Modern Vs organic: Environment & safety, esp.
developing countries
Organic farming more environment friendly > dev
more arable land, e.g. desert
Education for sustainability, e.g. Shops selling
organic food
Organic farming more productive, e.g.
- Introduction of modern farming tech
- Human fertilizer
- less harmful but more effective fertilizer
> less rely on animal manure, less land needed
Solution for hunger and poverty
- Modern conventional farming
- Capital intensive > competition
- Difficult for small farmers
- Less employment
