To know if it is stupid, it is to the character concerned that the question should be asked, not to me. Now if there are researchers who do not say bullshit, it is unlikely to be according to your subjective criteria, otherwise there will hardly be any credible people left in this area.So, Janic you did not go far enough in your research and you therefore glued-on a stupidity, said by a researcher but a nice bullshit all the same,
so stick it on without thinking for you this is your solution, this is all the difference, knowing how to take a step back in front of the information that we give you, the current world and especially the info, is no longer investigative journalism, but buzz journalism, it's up to everyone to have the knowledge to sort through or look beyond the tip of their nose before sticking on
you often talk about fake news, well there, you were in spite of yourself part of those who disseminated one because you took for cash the words of this researcher, and that is why when I defend certain points of view , I defend them on my own knowledge, in particular as a chemist, and a little biochemist, and yes some researchers say bullshit to support their theories or to make the buzz (voluntarily or involuntarily because they also do not take the time to check the info or to deepen)
so as Chafoin says, it is not all black and white this affair, but there must be a little of both, the intensive use of pesticides may have at a time decimated bees so much that peasants have embark on fertilization by hand, and seeing that it could open up new possibilities for them (cross-pollination, better quality harvest ...) they continued by exploiting this new farming method, but it is not presented as this by this researcher
