RFKs mom took too much Tylenol fr

Why are we spraying antibiotics on plants? Like I’m no crunchy mom type, but just seems wrong.
Do you know that the bananas you probably eat (maybe not, idk you) are at risk of going functionally extinct because of a type of fungus? A similar thing happened with Gros Michel bananas, which are not actually extinct but commercially unviable due to said fungus.
Many plants require multitudes of antibiotics, pest control poisons and other measures simply to be able to ship and supply grocery stores with enough 'goods' to fill shelves. Regardless of whether or not the majority of those 'goods' end up being thrown away. You are right in thinking that it is wrong — because it is.
Lentils, for example, do very poorly when competing with weeds. This is why herbicides are required very early on to grow lentils, otherwise they simply won't compete as well. It doesn't really matter if it's organic or not — you are still required to use those pesticides.
One would think 'well then maybe we shouldn't grow as many lentils' — and you'd be right! Now, say that to all the vegans that are more or less required to eat lentils due to their protein and vitamin content. Suddenly things aren't nearly as clean cut as 'simply don't do the thing'.
Bacterial disease on crops are very hard to control. Traditionally there is not much l chemistry that can control them effectively. This is especially true on tree fruit where bacterial disease can cause a lot of damage. Bacterial diseases on annual crops from seed are usually controlled by phytosanitary procedures (like acid seed extraction in tomatoes).
So if you got an apple or an orange grown in the U.S. it likely had some antibiotic sprayed on it.

The traditional control has been copper. Copper unfortunately sticks around permanently and builds up to some pretty toxic levels.

If you eat organic, it's had a shit ton of copper sprayed on it.
crops can get disease from bacterial infections.
I’m sure Bayer will just buy a bunch of Trump coin or give the president a 24k golden corn cob, and that will keep big the agro antibiotics flowing.
EPA? We still have one of those?
Can we at least start with something less extreme and much more impactful: ban the blanket feeding of antibiotics to meat animals just because it’s slightly more profitable.
