pesticides can have harmful effects on human health. food safety becomes a concern when biotechnology is involved and chemicals get involved. the result is faster production rates at the cost of food safety.

Do you think the use of pesticides is a cause of a smaller population globally? Roughly - how many more people do you think there would have been globally today, if pesticides never had been used? – at Randers, Danmark

Farmers have used organic production for 10,000 years and are very knowledgeable of its limited abilities. Banning chemicals will greatly reduce crop yields, dramatically increase food insecurity. Yield losses from weeds, insects & disease can reach 100%. saifood.ca/environmental-act…

Pesticide bans will indeed increase food security. The pesticides destroy soil fertility and biodiversity. Good agronomic practices will replace the indiscriminate spreading of poisons in our environment. Time to move forward and say goodbye to the old primitive toxic system.

Will you please answer the question of how much pesticide bans will increase food security and childhood malnutrition? The public has the right to know the potential for human suffering from your calls for reduced pesticide use. Looking forward to your response.
