It's time to bring back the old practices of crop rotation and use of the chain of life in a healthy ecosystem to manage overgrowth of pest crops. In the old times, farmers depended on birds, insects and rodents to control pests Humanity took tens of thousands of years to perfect agriculture. It's taken humanity in the modern chemical-dependent age less than a hundred years of monoculture to push it to the brink of collapse. Granted, yields will be lower.
