Our recent post have tried to highlight some existing #agricultural #pesticides issues w/in #ASEAN. Like the #ClimateCrisis, the pesticides problem is both ubiquitous and existential, i.e., #food production. wholesale tolerance/acceptance of it is insidious,
1. It degrades food's nutritional value
2. It readily impacts #SoilQuality #biodiversity and #EcosystemServices
3. It exploits occupational health-related disparity among #migrantworkers
4. Its industry profits in the name of #foodsecurity

Around 75% of plants high in protein are imported.

#Plantprotein production must be expanded to:
🌱improve #SoilQuality
🌱decrease fertilizer use
🌱develop #RuralAreas.
