Last year, we released a yellow toadflax weevil as a biocontrol in a remote oil & gas owned location. They survived the winter becoming established. We are very excited as this weevil collapses populations of yellow toadflax which is a damaging invasive weed. The future of IPM will hopefully have more viable biocontrols. Regardless though, the implementation of new drone and camera technology will significantly reduce the broadcasting of pesticides as the pest populations will be more targetable in isolated areas. Smaller targeted applications will reduce the development of "super" bugs and weeds that are resistant to control methods.

I was expecting this video to be more in line with permaculture... That's the only way to go forward, we should be teaching that to our students!

You only have to "deal" with pests when you are trying to unsustainabley extend a failed monoculture model with chemicals. It turns out if you don't put all of your eggs in one basket, you don't lose so many eggs if you drop it. In a permaculture model, pests are food for other critters, so you need to sacrifice some of your yield to maintain a healthy population of both the pests, AND the predatory beneficial species. And once again you are ignoring the soil, and the vital role the Rhizosphere plays in sustaining crops natural defenses. As well, industrial corn production, and the subsidy of corn production, are DELUSIONALLY harmful to society, the planet, AND the economy. Maybe don't glorify the role of corn. Or soy.
