		Veganism (as a diet) is thus a stricter form of vegetarianism and is an expansion of vegetarian ideals.
		Vegans may sometimes have lower calcium intake than non-vegetarians --but, then again, their calcium requirements may be lower as well.
		Veganism also may be healthier for the enviroment and may improve the conditions of low income people in and out of third world countries by freeing more food for human consumption.

	Organic farming
		Organic farming is a way of farming that avoids the use of synthetic chemicals and genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and follows the principles of sustainable agriculture.

		Organic farming is an agricultural approach that avoids the use of synthetic chemicals and genetically modified organisms (GMOs), and follows the principles of sustainable agriculture.
		Some organic farming advocates believe that, even if yields are currently lower, these results are obtained without the huge subsidies paid to conventional farmers, and expect yields to be equivalent or higher if organic farming were subsidised to the same level.
		Furthermore, some organic farming practices are claimed to do more damage than conventional practices – for instance, the practice of ploughing (see tillage) to prepare soil for planting is claimed to increase soil damage compared to using Roundup, a herbicide.

	Cookery Helper - Vegan
		Vegans tend to suffer less from obesity-related illness, cancers, heart trouble, stroke, and diabetes; however, this should not be confused with overall health or longevity of vegan.
		The primary ethical argument against veganism attacks the concept of "indirect responsibility" via reductio ad absurdum, stating that it is impossible to avoid all harm: animals are sometimes killed in the process of producing vegan food, whether by accident during harvest or intentionally, as pest control.
		Vegans also by and large promote conservationist environmental and energy policies and sustainability agriculture, not least because such policies are seen as steps toward achieving the aims of veganism on a grander scale, in part by reducing the amount of inefficiently mass-produced meat.

		Veganism is a modern idea, as a reaction to the exploitation of nature, including imposing unnecessary suffering on non-human animals.

		Vegans are often accused of forcing their views on non-vegans, often phrased "shove veganism down their throats".

	Agriculture for Vegetarians with Organic Fertilizers - Free Guide to Natural Compost with BioFertilizers, ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Vegan organic gardening aims to produce organically grown foods and other crops whilst minimising (preferably erradicating) the exploitation or harm of any living creature.
		Vegan organic farming is similar to organic horticulture but does not allow the use of materials such as blood, fish and bone meal or animal manures because the production of these is viewed as either harming animals directly, or is associated with the use of animals for meat, milk or leisure activities.
		If the organic standards were more restrictive and only allowed the use of manure from organic farms, then there would be an even greater scarcity of suitable manure; yet this would encourage the development of plant-based alternatives.

		Vegans often cannot be fully aware of the many products used in routine health care from their medical provider or a hospital stay.

	Organic farming (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		In many parts of the world, organic certification is available for a fee to farms that choose to formally declare their "organic" status.
		In general terms, organic farming involves natural processes and a holistic approach, while chemical-based farming focusses on isolated effects and reductionist strategies (some would argue that this reductionism is greedy reductionism).
		For fertilization, organic farming relies heavily on the natural breakdown of organic matter, using techniques like green manure and composting to replace nutrients taken from the soil by previous crops.

		For example, for many years I was committed to the idea that only annual plants could yield enough to be suitable for use as agricultural crops.
		Even as recently as 1998 I was writing that, from the point of view of feeding the world's human population, annual crops were better than perennials.1 Now I must eat my words and own up to having been mistaken.
		I am now convinced that annual crop production is unsustainable, even when done organically, and that we must look to perennial plants for our nourishment in the years to come.
