Working on updating degree in crop science @ this time. I've been reading studies on ROI/profitability for organic vs conventional crops for a paper I need to write. Organic production cost is higher per unit produced, less yields typically, demand seems to have peaked for the time being. Conventional crops have remained steady for cost of production of late, yields steady to higher, demand steady. Cost of land is virtually the same between the two. All facts considered, conventional has definate edge in profitability/ROI. Markets do vary with regions. Organic is favored slightly in high income areas. Less popular in middle/low income areas. USDA and FDA studies show food related illness slightly more likely with organic. Numbers show conventional to be cheaper, more abundant, easier to find, and safer.
