>Most fruit and vegetables you eat have some element of manual labour.
And that is relevant how?
>Try growing tomato.
You try. Literally nothing you said except 45-60 days is correct. And literally none of it is relevant to the discussion. What on earth does tomatoes taking 60 days to start producing fruit have to do with no-till or weeds? Pro-tip: my garden is full of tomatoes. It is not tilled, plowed, weeded, fertilized, irrigated, or sprayed with anything. Pruning tomatoes lowers the yield per plant, it only increases the yield per sq foot, which is why only greenhouse producers do it.
>Compared to tomato production tilling is a low effort.
So because you have a garden and you waste lots of time gardening poorly, that means it makes sense to waste even more time doing more unnecessary labor to lower your yields? Tilling is labor, saying "I do lots of even dumber things" doesn't change this.
>In Europe only like 4% farmland is zero-till.
So those 4% are magic and defying the laws of physics? Or those 96% are dumbasses?
>Zero-till can only be used for very specific crops.
Nonsense. Name a single crop that you think can not be grown no-till and I will show you someone growing it no-till.
