Well yes, but what is 'goodness'?

According to Organic(TM) scheme it is mainly about getting premium
prices off the worried well for vastly overpriced and overpackaged
Organic(TM) branded goods in supermarkets. After being sanctified by the
acolytes of the Soil Association you can charge a massive premium.

Often the Organic(TM) stuff is flown half way round the world using
vastly more petrochemicals than it would require to grow it locally.

I have no problem at all with minimum inputs agriculture (as opposed to
modern intensive commercial farming) or local farmers markets, but
Organic(TM) is founded primarily on marketing concerns rather than on
real science.

Well yes, but you still haven't defined 'goodness' in this context.
