I'm not sure what Peru has to do with anything. TFA is about the USA, and usda.gov is an American site.
But I bet if the average ancient Peruvian had to choose between their avocados dying or their next-door neighbors dying, they'd choose to save their neighbors. Unfortunately in modern times, I'm not so sure anymore.

- tomhow 3mo ago> Your idea is 'i heard about desert avocadoes on tiktok and its insane and whoever does it needs machine-gunned.'. Please don't post this kind of denunciatory rhetoric on HN. It sounds like you have interesting historical knowledge about the history of avocado cultivation in Peru, and we love for this kind of material to be shared here, but the guidelines ask us to converse curiously, not fulminate or berate fellow community members. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
