What happens to our food

Yeah he's (or she's) right. The chemicals are put there to protect the plants and help them grow faster, making things less expensive for you, the consumer. They are highly regulated too.

Take it from a farmer, you can't so much as open a container of those chemicals and sneeze without a regulator handing you a tissue, you can't order or name said chemicals without a background check and surprise inspections at least once a month and just because the people applying those chemicals are wearing personal protective equipment (ppe for short) doesn't mean much, most makeup and hairspray have worse chemicals in them! Granted the chemicals can cause irritation if exposed to but not much worse than your average seasonal allergy.

How about Equate?

Take it from another farmer, organic doesn't mean 'no chemicals', organic food gets sprayed with chemicals that are made from 'natural' chemicals, not refined tested synthetic ones. The 'natural' chemicals also happen to be worse than the synthetic ones, and are quite often carcinogenic. So don't try to ruin conventional farmers over some propaganda bullshit on the internet.

That's true I forgot about the 'organic' movement, frankly if it grows its organic in the strictest sense as in its a living thing.

And how about Equate? Causing a shitstorm jan NY. (No pun intended)
