   It may be the case that some animals die but I don't believe   
   they /have/ to die. I live on a farm and since my father's stroke   
   about two years ago my sister and her husband keep a relatively   
   small part of it going without killing animals to produce vegetables   
   and fruits all year round. If they can do it so can others. I'm not   
   interested in keeping it going. I just want to get rid of it.
