Why insects do not (and cannot) attack healthy plants | Dr. Thomas Dykstra | Regenerative Ag

Post by GMO »


Dr. Thomas Dykstra, Laboratory Director of Dykstra Labs and AEA Scientific Advisor, is a trained entomologist with a vast background in agricultural consulting. For years, Tom has been illuminating farmers to the science behind insect pressure and demonstrating why insects do not—and cannot—attack healthy plants.

In our latest webinar, Dr. Dykstra sits down with John Kempf to explain what constitutes a healthy plant, the machinations of insect digestion, and how to use the Leaf Brix chart as a reference guide for any kind of pest pressure.
“If you can't explain it to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.” -Albert Einstein
