This isn't a counter point to organic agriculture but against idiotic policies.
Everybody who has even a passing knowledge of the subject knows that yields drop in the first few years. Especially when the necessary knowledge about local resistant varieties, supporting crops, natural ways to deal with pests were lost over the years.
Just reading the setup it was clear what would happen. It was like blindfolding a formula 1 driver and telling him to go full speed. The crash would not be a surprise. I would have been stunned had it worked.
Let me provide a more scientific counter point regarding yields comparing different types of agriculture [0].
