That's what I used to think but then I read a study, and now I can't track it down, about apple farms in England. The conclusion was that when you do organic right you end up with just marginally higher costs and the same yields.
I think doing organic right involved extensive soil preparation and complex natural pest control, and using the same high yield apple varieties. But that was just one study, about apples in England, and I can't even track it down now.
