What if there were no pesticides?

Life would certainly be very different. Without DDT in previous wars, we would have possibly seen very different outcomes. Far fewer humans would be alive today because malaria and other very nasty plagues would be rampant.

Food would be far less attractive. Your Apples would have worms, your tomatoes would be very small and all food would be far more expensive.

The invention of pesticides was one of the turning points for all mankind. Without these chemicals, man would be far less abundant and far less healthy.
