>Current mega-ag practices are just plain not sustainable.  IMHO.

Christina, could you clarify what you mean by "not sustainable"
and over what time frame?
Like could you name some specific widely grown crops where you 
know the farmers themselves are deeply worried they may soon 
have to accept lower yields due to serious and unsolvable 
problems caused by "mega-ag" practices? If you know of some
specific crop examples, could you then tell us the specific
serious and unsolvable problems they are facing that were caused
by "mega-ag"practices? Thanks.
