FALSE

Organic farming systems yield approximately 10-20% lesser than chemical farming.

Conventional farming has always prioritized more produce, risking other sustainability metrics such as nutritional quality, energy use, soil quality, biodiversity and pollution. Organic farming presents a more balanced approach to agriculture. Organic farming better harmonizes the four areas of sustainability: environment, economics and social well-being.
