You don't know anything about organic agriculture, do you? :-)

There would be darn few nutrients in "purified" dirt.

Organic produce is grown without chemically synthesized fertilizers and
without being contaminated with bug poison. The soil is enriched with
manure and compost, not exactly "pure" in the tradtitional sense.
