I've been farming for over a decade, and I'm wondering if the push for organic farming is actually the best path forward for food security. When I see yields drop by up to 30% on organic plots in my region, I can't help but question whether we can feed a growing global population without synthetic fertilizers. At the same time, I've seen how soil health improves on my neighbor's organic fields after five years, and that seems crucial too. Is there a middle ground, or do we have to choose between productivity and sustainability?
