To the crop there's no difference, to the producer and consumer there's a ton of difference. Less costly (for both) due to increased efficiency, largely in the uptake. Less runoff (if done properly, but obviously this is a huge area of concern regardless). On the other hand, some consumers demand niche products for reasons that are best described as "ad copy".
In the end though, absolutely right, it makes no difference. The more food/space/things etc we need/want the harder we will have to leverage this rock (or other rocks), there's no getting around that. We aren't exactly innovators in this regard either (when considering life as a whole). Morality and ethics don't even begin to factor into questions of survival for me, personally.
