Hi SoSick,

Thanks for those links! I don't know to whom you are referring your past two posts -- was it Elvis? Anyway, I don't know anything about biodynamic farming -- I just supplied that link for people who might be interested in learning about it.

I do, however, frequent that Organic Consumers Org website for their news on what the "Monsanto's" (a/k/a BigAg's) of the world are attempting to do to our food supply. I'm particularly interested in the frightening aspects of GMO's and Frankenfoods.

Anyway, I posted the fertilizer information so that people could use the source as a launching pad to help decipher what heavy metals exist in said fertilizers. Duff Wilson's book goes into more detail with specific heavy metal breakdowns, suppliers, areas where the fertilizer was sold, etc. This industrial waste was sold as fertilizer to commercial farmers, private farmers, and individual consumers for their home gardens and lawns.

I don't know about all this manure debate. But I daresay if manure was used from cattle who had grazed on fields that were genetically modified or fields that had received less then stellar "fertilizer" (this did happen to some organic farmers), then that manure could be filled with heavy metals and poison any otherwise clean crops.

For people who are interested in discovering sources of heavy metal poisoning, this could be an important consideration depending upon their location.
