"Although the notoriety of the local food movement is increasing, ... some remain unconvinced that the local food movement is as good as its reputation suggests."
as good as its reputation suggests: This is correct. If something is "all it's cracked up to be" it is as good as promised or expected. Note, this idiom is more commonly used in its negative form, for example: The internet isn't all it's cracked up to be (= the internet is overrated, it has a reputation/status that it doesn't deserve). In the article, critics think the local food movement is not as important (or beneficial) as its supporters suggest.
based on scientific fact: If (a report) isn't "all it's cracked up to be" it does not mean the (report) is lacking in scientific facts. This isn't the best choice here.
anything more than a crazy idea: This is incorrect. If a person "cracks up", they go crazy or mad. However, this meaning is unrelated to the idiom "all it's cracked up to be".
