Organic foods promote biodiversity. Reducing pesticides that can adversely affect the nervous system, increases the risk of cancer, and decreases fertility. Also synthetic fertilizer drifting downstream is the main culprit for dead zones in delicate ocean environments such as the Gulf of Mexico. Organic food helps to keep chemicals out of the air, water, soil, and our bodies while also reducing your carbon footprint. Each new generation will be ever more focused (they will have to be) on the health (and therefore cost) of foods grown with pesticides or treated with chemicals. Crucible believes that there are a growing number of opportunities for investment in organic foods.
