9 Foods the Government is Paying for You to Eat

[BrownEye]

As far as I'm informed, it would be entirely possible to feed today's world population while fully relying on organic, fully sustainable farming methods. And I totally believe it (though it's a bit hard talking about these topics as an "armchair philosopher" basically...).

I do remember a UN report saying that the population of the planet would easily be sustained if all farming methods were required to switch to organic. The mechanics of their concept was that there is a higher nutrient density in organic foods, thus not needing to eat as much to get the nutrients needed. So even with the standard folks complaining about organic harvests normally yielding less, that lesser amount is so much denser in nutrition that the tradeoff was well worth it. Another point was less land having to be used to grow the same amount of usable nutrients.
