What do you mean by cyclical? Do you mean the livestock/fertilizer/crop/fodder cycle?
That's the one
Just curious, since I'm not aware of either cyclical production or crop rotation being a requirement for organic farming
Yeah, that's what happens when you don't trademark something. That was the original idea. It makes the name "organic" make more sense, several senses in fact:
7.
characterized by the systematic arrangement of parts; organized; systematic:
8.
of or relating to the basic constitution or structure of a thing; constitutional; structural:
9.
developing in a manner analogous to the natural growth and evolution characteristic of living organisms; arising as a natural outgrowth.
10.
viewing or explaining something as having a growth and development analogous to that of living organisms
Actually having a cyclical system is more "organic" by senses of the word which don't mean "on the USDA approved list" or "has a scary name"
