Modern conventional farmers don't want to turn to organics, biodynamics, or permaculture because their lazy, beer-swilling idiots. At least in Australia they are. It means they have to get their fat, lazy arses off their tractors and do some hard work with their hands.
let's face it, using machinery which compacts the soil, and chemical synthetic fertilisers which degrades the soil of any nutrient is easy.
It doesn't matter to them that they are getting f**cked up the arse by Big Ag which sells them the propaganda as well as the product, because the education systems and schools in rural Australia are devoid of any real talent, thus they don't learn anything like critical thinking skills, and just swallow anything that the National Party and their Big Ag donators feed them.
Rant over. #sorrynotsorry
