Yes, I see my medicine analogy has some holes. The point I was trying to
make is that we shouldn't compare farmers who use exhorbident amounts of
chemicals to those who use them sparingly. I've been able to reduce my
chemical usage to nearly half and I don't think it is fair to say that
I'm in the same camp as those who use full rates. Isn't this what
sustainable agriculture is all about? (as well as other aspects) Or is
the goal of sustainable ag to get everyone to be organic?
