Organic vegetable cultivation can only be sustainable if people understand how to use and prepare organic stuff.

This is due to the fact that it enhances the soil and prevents it from becoming compacted and crusted. It increases the water-holding capacity of the soil, allowing earthworms and other microorganisms to aerate it, as well as slowing erosion and allowing organic matter to release nitrogen and other nutrients that aid crop growth.

This is an old approach that is making a comeback because the traditional method of employing synthetic elements such as fertilizer and pesticides has destroyed the soil and depleted it of organic matter, rendering it unfit for replanting.
