"What would help is a reversal of the … lack of investment in agro-ecological, nature-friendly methods and farmer-led technology. We should be investing in solutions that deal with the cause of disease and pests in the first place, including a lack of crop diversity, the decline in beneficial insects, and animal overcrowding."
