I would say this about modern agriculture: it can be greatly improved through the use of Higa's Essential Microorganisms, and home gardners can make use of the stuff to create superb compost out of household garbage. Bottom line: foods grown in soil improved by EM is delicious and nutritious. I buy some locally in Japan from time to time, and the taste -- ooishi!!!!
Americans are doing EM farming now. This is a trend I expect to grow and grow. EM may be more important than genetic tinkering in the long run, and a heck of a lot safer.
