Published: Mar 10, 2010

In 2002 the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland considered a report on sustainable agriculture and agreed two deliverances:

To affirm the importance of moving to more sustainable forms of agriculture, including both integrated and organic farming systems, and to urge HMG to provide more incentives and assistance for farmers to do so.
To urge Her Majesty’s Government to submit the health and nutritional claims of organic agriculture to independent scientific research and evaluation.
