I can see dry air reducing the fungus problems, but what about the insects?
If you have none, you are truely blessed.


People who are reliant on chemically produced fruit set up conditions
in the soil to be unable to support healthy fungi and other organisms
in the soil which contribute to fruit production.

The way you grow organic fruit, commercial production included is to
support healthy soils, use of certified organic fertilizer, addition
of compost each year, good soil aeration, proper hygiene after the
production season is over, not leaving diseased fruits laying around,
etc. There is nothing anyone can do about rot on peaches, organic OR
synthetic. There's a lot more to it than you are willing to learn.
