ScienceDaily: Pesticides Choke Pathway For Nature To Produce Nitrogen For Crops

ScienceDaily: Pesticides Choke Pathway For Nature To Produce Nitrogen For Crops:
"a team of scientists reports that artificial chemicals in pesticides -- through application or exposure to crops through runoff -- disrupt natural nitrogen-fixing communications between crops and soil bacteria. The disruption results in lower yields or significantly delayed growth"

Interesting!! So the more they use, the more they need to stay even.
