[QUOTE="1wlimo, post: 904864, member: 16646"] SL and any other dinosaurs out there, agriculture is not like a factory making widgets. It is a highly complex system, so complex that we can not even model it using computers properly. There are simply too many variables. Every thing is inter connected. This is why looking after the environment, leads onto better animal production and then we end up with a rather woolly but correct statement from IluvABbeef. By going for simple single objectives, and sort term profits we have problems. Examples, banks lending to high risk people, the dust bowls of the 1930's, BSE, Yield growth in crops is slowing all over the world, the reason being that the soil we use, and the water that we use is being degraded. We all have to look at the environmental effect we have, there is no point making a big profit today if tomorrow we go bust. Much better to make long term sustainable profit. [/QUOTE]
