There are new subspecies coming about that are BT resistant unfortunately.

Great reason why you should make some scouting in the field for monitoring bugs!

[icepick]

It’s crazy that people would rather use insecticides than an animal to get rid of the bugs. Early homing explosives used to use pigeons to home in on enemy air carriers, and some farms in Asia. Use baby crabs to get rid of insects in their farms. I just think it’s crazy. We would rather use pesticides than use an animal for an alternative.

Don't forget the humans eating the corn meant for pigs.

What if you were to lay wire through the whole field and hit it with a dose of electricity? You know just kind of like do a double whammy use the pesticide that you normally use and then also use something to wear as your tractor rolls it plunges into the dirt pulsating electricity through it?
