Side question: any sign of at least borderline-viable farming techniques without pesticides or herbicides? By viable I mean, as a complete replacement for current agriculture.
I know next to nothing about this, but have had some shower thoughts that a different agriculture system could be viable if we increased our expectations for farming's labour intensity. I probably got the idea from permaculture videos, because they seem to get impressive results, but it also requires some skill and a lot of work.
I'm half-expecting a hail of downvotes, but maybe I'll find other people that have been wondering the same.
