Most organic farmers barely make enough to survive from year to year.

Responses:

Because most organic farmers aren't good businesspersons? If they were, they wouldn't bother with organic. - Name Withheld By Request Nov 4, 22:40 2
- Then why are most other independent small (as opposed to factory farms) in the same boat? - tobor.2 Nov 4, 22:49 1
  - I grew up in a farm town and my father spent fifty years farming. I have a decent sense of the forces involved. - Name Withheld by Request Nov 4, 23:09
