Title: it's not about organic/sustainable AT ALL
Review: This book gives a lot of info on how conventional farming works. It's basically how to use conventional methods on smaller farms. Whenever he mentions organic farming he talks about how HARD it is and how there are so many PROBLEMS. He's a big complainer. The reason he sees it as hard is because he's talking about replacing conventional inputs (for example chemical fertilizers) with "organic" inputs, as if that's all there is to it. The problem is that his *thinking* is not sustainable at all, so of course his approaches are going to be trying to muscle things into working in a system where they just don't fit. The good thing about this book is it gives you a nice comparison of what conventional farming looks like.
