The PowerPoint slide doesn’t say, “just go out and spray chemicals to take care of the problem!”

I saw this slide during a presentation from Oregon State University at this years Seed Growers League and just thought it was so interesting because I get so many questions about why we spray “so much”.
So here is a bit of reality about what we are taught, what tools we use, and how yes, we continue to strive to be true stewards of the land.
