Well, OK, let me clarify: My problem with the Organic Farming idea is solely against the fact that they dislike genetically modified foods.

I will not debate fertilizers. I do not know much about them, and I could see us needing to reduce using most of them. I want to stick to going against GMO's

As for more food being produced:

Taken from http://www.reason.com/news/show/27665.html

"But Borlaug and his team were already engaged in the kind of crash program that Ehrlich declared wouldn't work. Their dwarf wheat varieties resisted a wide spectrum of plant pests and diseases and produced two to three times more grain than the traditional varieties."

"In 1960, the production of the 17 most important food, feed, and fiber crops--virtually all of the important crops grown in the U.S. at that time and still grown today--was 252 million tons. By 1990, it had more than doubled, to 596 million tons, and was produced on 25 million fewer acres than were cultivated in 1960. If we had tried to produce the harvest of 1990 with the technology of 1960, we would have had to have increased the cultivated area by another 177 million hectares, about 460 million more acres of land of the same quality--which we didn't have, and so it would have been much more. We would have moved into marginal grazing areas and plowed up things that wouldn't be productive in the long run. We would have had to move into rolling mountainous country and chop down our forests. President Clinton would not have had the nice job of setting aside millions of acres of land for restricted use, where you can't cut a tree even for paper and pulp or for lumber. So all of this ties together."

So if you grew EVERYTHING organically, no genetic modified anything, you'd have to chop down forests, which would cause less trees, who suck up carbon dioxide... see? It's about balance, and going 100% no-GMO isn't balance.
