Sounds to me like the big corporate food producers will continue to press for the lion's share of profits. The markets for organics is growing therefore, "Big Food", with the FDA and USDA's help and influence, will continue to water down the standards until everything you buy is labeled "organic" but is just the same old junk that they sell now. Remember...arsenic is organic!

There was a local guy who was raising ostrich for meat probably ten years ago. I asked him why he stopped and he said because the cattle industry had made sure that ostrich do not qualify as livestock. Instead they are 'exotic' which makes the fees so high that no one could afford to slaughter them.
God forbid we should have access to healthy food. I wonder what the ultra-rich eat?
