[Terrapreta] Pure Organics Vs. Biological Agriculture

[Gerald Van Koeverden]

The cattle industry died in our area some years ago, before GMO corn  
came out.  All we have left are empty silos - tombstones to the beef  
industry!

However, I just figured that if the difference in nutritional value  
was so much, that I would have heard it talked about by the odd  
remaining few...I will ask around.
