Mar 23, 2017 at 16:07 | comment | added | LShaver♦ | Welcome to Sustainability.SE! I'm no expert, but I found this paper from 1983 which offers a bit of insight. They find that conventional corn in Iowa requires 9.6 hours/hectare of labor, while organic methods require on average 15.5 hours/hectare, depending on the specific organic method. | |
