[Market-farming] Organic vs conventional agriculture production

In this connection, coincidentally, I came across a VERY interesting
article today.  

Maybe comparing organic vs. conventional production isn't the right
question to ask anymore:  maybe the right question is really 'Which form of
agriculture *can* continue without worsening global warming and using up
scarce petroleum?'.  

And then, of course, the next question becomes 'And how do we maximize the
yields from this form of agriculture?'
