Uh, Chris.  Europe was one solid forest before our ancestors invented axes 
and farming.  You and I wouldn't even be here if they hadn't cleared the 
woods.  And they only had wheat to plant.  Monoculture is nothing new. 
There are areas that are suited best for one crop; use them.   What's sad 
about it?
