oximoron?

we talked about industrial organic farms. my group even stated that we need a new term other than organ because we see that it does not meet our standards. i tried to play devil's advocate in defending the big monster that everyone saw as the food industry. stating that all the chemicals that they imply into our foods is necessary because the high demands of our foods have changed. i understand that a organic farm dosnt have to be a small feild were everything is grown "right". but if we mangaged to be able to mass produce healthy and high quality foods would we rlly achieve a industrail organic farm?

This is a complicated issue. Certainly industrial organic is better than regular industrial organic from a health point of view because at least you know that there are not (as much) pesticides used on the produce.
