[QUOTE="Ffermer Bach, post: 7651754, member: 51054"] I think we should look at the carbon footprint of fertliser (production, and it's effect on stored soil carbon too) as well as the effect of ploughing on soil carbon. My gut feeling is that organic (with regular ploughing) is far worse than non organic without ploughing. Likewise vegetarian food produced with soil losing carbon is far worse than pasture fed lamb or beef, but where do we find figures to tell us? I guess the fertliser companies will not be paying for that research, nor will the vegetarian food production companies and as the government likes research to be industry led there will be none done, especially as Carrie and Zac Godsmith seem to run the opinions of Boris Johnson!
