It is proven that organic pesticides deposit a ton of harmful chemicals into both the soil that you grow your food in, as well as the water systems that you get your drinking water from.  What farmers have found out though is that these pesticides aren’t always required, as the plants have natural defenses against them, as well has almost all of the insects being completely harmless to the crops.  The best part of this is that you don’t have to purchase expensive organic pesticides, while you still can if you prefer not to make your own, but you are able to produce your own organic pesticides based on recipes found on the internet.

When farmers use pesticides to get rid of the insects and bugs that they believe harm their crops, what they are really doing is depositing harmful chemicals and substances into the soil which is in turn absorbed into the plants and fruits that you are eating.  These chemicals also stunt the growth of the crops, which farmers often don’t realize.  These chemicals are even absorbed into the water system that the farmers are using to supply water to their animals, which is then absorbed into the meat that you are receiving.

What the farmers don’t usually realize is that the bugs and insects that they find in their fields and gardens are actually quite harmless, and often actually beneficial to the plants that they are growing.  These small insects help to eat the other harmful bugs and parasites that will damage the crops, and if farmers converted over to using organic pesticides they would not only increase the growth of their crops, protect the environment, but also allow nature to function in the manner that it is supposed to.  Little bugs and insects often help the environment rather than harm it.

There are some costs associated with organic pesticides, which is one of the main reasons that more farmers aren’t converting their systems, but as a home gardener there is an incredible way to produce your own pesticides that are still safe for your family to consume.  There are recipes available all across the internet for how to produce your own environment friendly organic pesticides, so if you are a home gardener or even a larger farm owner, you may want to really start considering the benefits of either converting to an organic pesticide system, or creating your own organic pesticides.
