Organic food does not 'cost the earth' to grow. It should not also cost consumers 'the earth' to eat. At the same time however, assuming that the ruling market prices for conventionally-grown food (read chemically-grown food) are fair, it is only correct that an organic farmer should receive at least a marginally higher price for his produce and his efforts, especially when consumers are aware that organic food is better than chemically-grown food in all respects, including taste, flavour and for their own health, besides that of the earth.

Large players in agribusiness in India have sold a story that we need to produce more food and increase productivity of our fields. They also seem convinced that they hold the key to feeding the country. Their solutions consist of factory farming, biofortification (protato, golden rice), genetically-modified seeds, cloning, hybrid seeds, pesticides, weedicides, mechanisation and monocultures.
