>Not necessarily as organic agriculture also uses pesticides (naturally occuring ones) Actually, a better characterization could be "medieval ones". For instance, copper sulfate (CuSO4) is not exactly a "naturally occurring" substance, it's an industrial chemical but allowed in organic agriculture because it is a "traditional" pesticide (even though it is more toxic than, say, glyphosate, by a factor of 10). Other than that, you make the points I would have made.
