PREAMBLE- MY VIEW ON ORGANIC PRODUCTION. Organic production has an important place in modern agriculture. It is good to test how various techniques and approaches can limit or change agricultural inputs, or produce a more profitable crop for farmers. While many are critical of the discipline I have always been a supporter, as organic production has an important role in the agricultural tapestry. Findings from organic agriculture are sometimes even extending and informing conventional practices, and can be extremely valuable in places where conventional inputs (pesticides, fertilizers) are not available.
At the same time I acknowledge that the blanket health, yield, and impact claims are not justified and must be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. I also have strong opinions about exemptions provided for organic farm labor and the non-use of antibiotics when animals need them to cure infection. It is a subject with much nuance.
OCA — A DANGEROUS FRINGE. The Organic Consumers Association (OCA) is a radical fringe arm related remotely to the massive organic industry............
BEN AND JERRY’S — HOISTED ON THEIR OWN PETARD. No matter what the science says they can’t come out and say that glyphosate is safe and that the levels claimed are inconsequential. For years their representatives have argued against genetic engineering and use of such products.They fought vehemently for “GMO” labeling and dismissed science all along the way. They followed the lead of an anti-science movement, and it has come back to now hit them hard.

My Take - Personally...I couldn't be more pleased to see these lunatics eating their own. Why? Because it clearly shows there is not now, nor will there ever be, a way to appease these misfits. So why do we in the pest control industry keep trying? First it was chlorinated hydrocarbons they wanted eliminated....and it happened. Then it was carbamates and organophosphates they wished to destroy, and that mostly happened. Now it's pyrethrins, pyrethroids and neonicotinoids. There will never be an end to this insanity until the EPA is eliminated, the activists are defunded, and sued out of existence. Why is that so hard to understand?
Leftists demand absolute obedience......or else. The fact the worst environmental catastrophes were caused by leftists and environmentalists escapes the public, the media, the politicians who support them, and the bureaucrats who make the rules. You don't believe that you say? Well, there will be more coming about this later.
