 In fact, plants absorb all their food directly from the soil in inorganic form, no matter where 
the nutrients may originally have come from. Experiments in Michigan and in England that went 
on for twenty-five years were unable to find any difference in plants raised organically and plants 
raised with chemical fertilizers. Things that do affect nutrient content are climate, time of harvest, 
and genetics - but no difference results when plants are grown organically. 
 Neither are organically grown plants free from chemicals such as pesticides. Some pesticides 
leave traces in the soil for years; these traces may be absorbed by the plant that is “organically” 
grown. Rainfall may wash pesticides from neighboring farms onto “organic” fields, and sprays or 
other applications of chemicals may drift and cause the same problem. 
Furthermore, all foods – whether grown conventionally or organically - may contain toxic 
substances to some degree; the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) maintains constant checks 
to ensure that these substances are kept at a harmless level. But aflatoxin, a mold that causes cancer, 
may grow on crops such as peanuts, or be present in milk. Lead and arsenic are sometimes present 
in bone meal or seafood. And many vegetables contain poisonous compounds such as oxalic acid 
and nitrite compounds. The point is, all these toxins may be present in a given food, no matter how 
the food was grown and cultivated. Toxic substances in food do not necessarily have to come from 
fertilizers or chemical sprays.
