What is the antonym of organically grown?

Consumers are prepared to pay a premium for organically grown vegetables.

It’s a difficult question for any man to answer… Whether to follow his dreams no matter what… Or to give in slowly and let life lead you where it will.

There is no true antonym, but they would be things grown using chemical fertilizers and pesticides.

Barbara, who answers in American English. My housekeeping skills attest to the truth of the second law of thermodynamics: Left to themselves, things get more and more random!

In a contemporary American supermarket or health foods store, you could ask, "are these organically grown or conventially grown?"
