What are some of the most important considerations? Propose some specific recommendations to increase the sustainability of our relationships with these plant species. Make sure to address all three pillars of sustainability in your answer.arrow_forwardPrepare a summary of this article without distorting the message it wanted to convey For farmers, pesticides save labor and generally provide a higher yield: they can mean the difference between saving a crop and losing it to disease. Some farmers, especially those who grow produce at a smaller scale, use pesticides sparingly. For example, fruit trees are susceptible to disease in northeastern regions, especially at the blossom stage. An apple or peach grower may spray their fruit trees with a fungicide once in the spring to ensure that the fruit sets, but use no further chemicals for the rest of the season. For many large row crop farmers, on the other hand, regular pesticide use is as much a part of farming as planting seeds. Spraying Roundup on a field of corn genetically engineered to withstand the chemical kills! the weeds without affecting the corn. In comparison to mechanically weeding hundreds or thousands of acres, using pesticides is a game-changer. Some farmers spray their…arrow_forwardThe image above is a screenshot taken from an online image sharing website, imgur, showing flowers that allegedly grew from the aftermath of the Fukushima Nuclear Powerplant disaster in 2011 “Do you think this post provides strong evidence of the actual conditions of the area?” Answer in the text box provided in no more than fifty (50) words.arrow_forward
