You need to rephrase your first question. I am not sure what you are asking.

Your second question... do you define success as yield per acre or profit?

3) Pros to owning an organic farm are many...
niche market that can produce a premium price
help the environment
ability to produce unusual crops

Cons would be...
having to establish your buisness
There is a learning curve to organic ag
Because of learning curve, you could be suceptible to crop failure.
It takes a few years to become Certified Organic
Dairy Farms require a lot more work than produce

4) I wouldn't see why not.
