Calling the farmers' Friend
When an Iowa farmer complained that pheasants ate his corn the game department killed two birds, found 200 cutworms in their crops, and no corn. Scientists often confirm this pattern as the farmer gains crop protection from birds that control pests. With ongoing bird slaughter, insect losses rise and farm work grows harder. The nation cannot replace the farmers as quickly as pests would destroy food production.
