The word ‘organic’ have absolutely no bearing on mercury content. Perhaps the soil association should take note of that and sorts this problem out for us, as food fertilised with chicken droppings is ‘perfectly’ Organic according to the guidelines of that association. If you are looking for foods that are low in mercury you will have to look at bio or bio-dynamic food produce that test very low in mercury in our experience.


Organic and bio-dynamic refer to the same things in regard to farming, they are virtually equivalent. Look it up. Chicken droppings generally aren't relied upon in agriculture, organic or non, except as incidental. A serious farmer with crops for sale doesn't want chickens in his garden pecking at the tomatoes and squashes anyway so you can safely rule that out.. Surely though, incidental chicken droppings would have less toxicity than even the best cow manure.

Don't quote me in your book, do some research or try a garden for first hand experience so you don't get laughed at too hard.

I won't tell you what organic farmers use to keep bacteria off their veggies headed to market, that's a secret.
