Are you asking if a country that has to farm land in Africa to come close to be able to feed its people (not mentioning the millions of poor that not really get fed) will catch on to a concept that produces less in the same time frame at a higher cost?

Hahaha

I think the organic movement will stay on the fringe as long as Chinese people remain ignorant about unsafe food practices. Therefore education is the key in my opinion! Seriously, I believe that many rural farmers are actually unaware of the damage their over-use of toxic chemicals is causing to the planet and the people. They don't realize that by soaking the soil in toxic fertilizer year after year, without giving the land a chance to recuperate and breath, the soil will become infertile and dead in a few years. They also don't realize that they are harming the health of themselves, their neighbors and everyone who consumes their produce. These people need to be enlightened and perhaps subsidised by the government in order to start practicing safe food cultivation.

It already has been. There's a lot of farms doing this and marketting to the wealthy and educated group.

How can you have organic products or farming in a country where most part of the rivers are polluted and which soil is also contanimated in one way or another?

Impossible, isn't it!

There are many meats and vegetables packaged as organic foods here is China in high end grocery stores like carrefour and Walmart. Of course the food inside the package is not organic. Why would you do organic farming in a country with no laws or regulations when you can just package any food you produce as organic, pay some bribes and have it shipped to the major supermarkets at inflated prices?

So the real answer is no. You can't find organic food in china. Just organic packaging.

Whats scarier is the big organic food companies in America (i.e. Whole Foods) are completely lying and ripping off consumers while the USDA hs its thumb up its ass. "Organic" food imported from China with zero American supervised inspection. They are actually letting the Chinese government inspectors pass the food and the USDA and Whole Foods is taking their word on it.

The evils of China are spreading out to our home countries as well and we better wake up.

Of course there is they put their crap on it and see it in the local markets, don't beleive me go to a village and see what they do, chemical cost money so they don't really use them!! Don't forget to was the sh.. off your tomatos

If the US cant control its organic food regulations (like with milk for example) how could China ever hope to do so?
