Thank you so much for this video (even though you still keep misspelling symbols like min, which is written without the dot like all the whole 100 % of symbols). Many people believe all they hear and follow these idiotic trends like cattle, without actually thinking beyond that or inform themselves properly...

Monsanto??
-
Who sponsors this?
-
Why was I unsubscribed to you? I used to watch you daily.
-
You forgot to mention that organic foods are GMO FREE (genetically modified free)
-
how are gmo crops 'conventional', and organic ones not. somebody got it all wrong here
-
Does anyone in the comments know descriptions exist?
-
Great little video! I see you're getting lots of haters here. That's too bad when you've very succinctly described the science and stats. My only 2 beefs- "factory" farms- 98% of all farms in the US are family farms. Yes, some are larger than others. Conventional farms also use crop rotations. Again, they tend to be monocultures, but typical corn belt rotations are corn, soy, and wheat. Others raise sunflowers, sun hemp, or perhaps another legume to break up pest cycles and and weed pressure. Cover crops and reduced tillage on any farm helps soil health too. Thanks for the great videos!

which app are you using for editing your videos plz plz plz plz

Bull s*** I don't want something that's genetically modified plain and simple. Monsanto probably make this video because of course they don't want to lose their billions and billions of dollars they make every year out of poisoning all of you

organic is avoiding the unethical behaviors of farmers in order to increase profit. A lot of this is grown without ethics ( disgrace ) and it's bad for the consumer and the environment. Organic is a standard, something capitalists don't have.

Buy food from local farmers and go and see how they grow there crops and raise their animals. I have always tried to buy the most naturally grown foods and raised animals and can always notice a difference in flavour and just how it make me feel. I have always been very sensitive to chemicals so I can usually tell when they are used. In the summer I have my own vegetables garden as well and store a lot of my own food for the winter.

it's interesting that this video didnt mention the negative impacts of synthetic fertilizers to the environment. Since, the runoff from these nutrients run off into different bodies of water and cause eutrophication (dead zones due to no oxygen left in the water) health wise more studies must be done.

is organic food scam?

even it is organic or not organic, industrial products do harm in total. they are all engineered in some way which are not natural. that is why i call "industrial" not agricultural. remember interstellar? the crops were dying because of industrialized agriculture. poisoned and dead soil.. the yields should not be high.. a natural environment does not need pesticides.. there should be bugs and small animals that feed on each other and live on the fields to regenerate the soil with ingredients to actually keep crops alive.. it is a mutual cycle. but we people are simply selfish, greedy and smart...

although this is true, you neglected to mention the fact that buying organic allows you to avoid GMOs which are linked to cancer on the long-term
