This is one of the things I find funny about modern day self sufficient communes. Subsistence farming is awful, industrialized farming is less awful, but still far more work than most are willing to ever do.

The issue is that the current farming techniques are not sustainable.

The fertilizers and pesticides used are burning the land, polluting the underground water pools and killing a bunch of animals and insects.

The agriculture needs to change to something sustainable.

Modern farming techniques consider sustainability, the larger problem is countries using traditional methods that are extremely harmful like burning forests.

This is complete bullshit. Unhinged stupidity.
