Pardon my ignorance, Lloyd: do you have any idea of why calcium
nitrate is not acceptable for organically certified crops?
Graham is very health conscious and he was very accepting of calcium
nitrate as a first season or emergency input. How do you feel about
it? (And, why?)
Thanks!

Schmeiser's appeal will come to the Canadian Supreme Court in the
near future. The issue there will be the protection of a patent
already extended to a lifeform, will it not? It will be interesting
to see how it comes out at that level. -Allan

Lloyd, Merla et al,
I just attended a lecture by Gary Zimmer at ACRES that
was an hour-long version of Lloyd's post. I'd like to
chime in on the dangers of dolomitic lime and the
problem of too much magnesium. Our local limestone
(and possibly soil base) is high in magnesium. As a

Never have corporations been so obvious in their attempt to remove us
from Nature. The contamination of our seedstock is simply a
corporate business plan. Worse, it currently appears that governments
will support the rights of corporations to the owner ship of our
native food plants.
