A few years ago, I saw someone cite an article stating that crop loss due
to pest damage has increased dramatically since the widespread use of
pesticides began. (We sanetters aren't surprised..kill the predators,
throw the ecosystem out of whack and, voila..)
I think this is a potent piece of evidence in our advocacy of
sustainable ag
If I recall, the article was in a meanstream publication like Science
or Nature, maybe from the 1970's(??)
Can anyone send me the citation?
thanks
David
