abstract: Der Journalist Michael Miersch stellt in seinem Artikel in der „Weltwoche“ vom 20. September 2007 wichtige Fragen an die biologische Landwirtschaftsmethode - zum Beispiel die nach der Sicherheit und nach der ernährungsphysiologischen Qualität der Produkte, nach deren Umweltbilanz und  nach deren Produktivität. 

Zu den von Michael Miersch aufgeworfenen Fragen zitiert FiBL-Direktor Urs Niggli die neueste Literatur.
