I think Bjorn dealt with most of your points sufficiently, but I don't think he covered the logic of your points. Just because someone has followed the tradition of farming in a certain place for a few generations, doesn't mean that it should continue, just because it's traditional. With that way of thinking, we'd continue to do all kind of foolish things, just because they were "traditional". I think that it is important to look at the reasons behind some of the things that we do, and if they are a bad idea in our modern life, then perhaps it's time branch out and try something new.
All the same, I do appreciate the opposite POV on an issue, which leads to good discussion and challenging thoughts, but not when it descends into flaming and personal attacks, not that that has happened here.
