Either yesterday or the day before I wrote about an article on organic wine. I was interested to read a UN newsfeed today on the status of organic farming in general. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) responded to an earlier claim that they endorsed organic farming as a solution to world hunger problems.
“We should use organic agriculture and promote it,” said Jacques Diouf, FAO’s Director-General. “But you cannot feed six billion people today and nine billion in 2050 without judicious use of chemical fertilizers.”
Interesting. I think the challenge is on.
I found an interesting blog along the way…check it out.
