Organic and Corporate Farming

             Is a natural method of farming on which no herbicides, pesticides, antibiotics, and genetically modified products are used. This has become very popular because many consumers are becoming worried about the health and safety issues of other products because of all the poisons used on them and the genetically enhanced foods (which have special traits added to them).
             One thing that organic farmers do, is they try to use natural ways of protecting their crop. For example, they will use crop rotations and/or they will plant a couple of crops in the same field. This is instead of using pesticides and other chemical fertilizers.
             Instead of having a small, family farm, corporate farms are basically owned by big companies and usually have a lot more land and workers than the family ones. This is because of the economic and social issues dealing with farming. Once there is a large farm that is making a lot of money and is doing very well economically, a company will come and visit and become very interested in it. Then they will make offers and usually buy the farms quite easily.
             Also, companies that make seeds and fertilizers are becoming very corporate because of the demand of their products and the new technological advances in them. The agricultural market is getting very busy, and this is influencing most farms in the world. Also, companies are getting so big, that they are starting to make an impact on the governments or whoever is in political control. This is because of the imports and exports that the farms are doing.
