Would you be happy to pay more for vegetables if the pesticide ban comes in or are you happy with the way farmers are currently growing their crops?

Amy Lowe, Isle of Man
Pesticides are clearly wrecking the nature of our country but i have a strange desire for them. Every minute of every day I want to marry them. If it means harming a frog then it is worth it as my love of pesticides should never go away. Without pesticides I am nothing.

Good Day, I'm Grace whom is all for Pesticides. Pesticides may be a threat but you may not realise but everyone comes into contact with a Pesticide in everyday life. My friend Daisy is against Pesticides but she doesn't realise that her name the 'Daisy' May also be sprayed with pesticides for growth in florists. Testify and remember Pesticides aren't that bad. :)

Robert Hester aka Frog
Hello as a fellow friend of the frog i believe that Pesticides are not relevant and we should become a green country. I may sound like a green freak but i am. I love frogs and the Pesticides are leaking into their water as well as ours. I believe in a greener future for both me and my frog spawn. Sean i do not agree with your comment, Say NO to the pesticide, Say No to the devil but say yes to GOD! Amen.

You are all getting hyped up over nothing. Get over yourselves. Pesticides have been used for ages and we are all still alive. Just don't become a farmer and it's all good.

Who cares about Pesticides? Get over it... Love Daisy Hickey!

Boris Johnson
I belive that not only do pesticides do not cause any effect on the human autonomy, but I also belive that all of you are over reacting so I say disallow pesticides.

I believe that the pesticides do not harm us, they are controlled in away which will not let us be exposed to too much in our system...Of course organic crops ARE GOOD but you shouldnt rule out pesticides they can be very useful (:You have to think about the outcome...Like money and what effect it had on the consumer...If pesticides were not used...Most likey the price will go up...this wont benefit us...So people who are not bothered by it shouldnt stop eating them and i feel that people can eat organic or non-organic if they like.

hi ho
pesticides are no harm to u

Holly Akhurst
I suffer severely from chemical related migraines and know without a shadow of a doubt that as soon as I inhale the slightest amount of chemical from spraying (bearing in mind that the drift of particles can reach at least five miles)a migraine will result and last for at least two or three days, or until the toxin has worked its way out of my system. The majority of people would think it was simply a country smell and don't realise the dangers involved and what they are being subjected to. Therefore spraying MUST be stopped. Nobody relishes the idea of a premature, horific death from cancer, or caring for a disabled child and in my case, why should I become a prisoner in my own home as soon as that putrid smell drifts across my property.

Pesticide use is a necessary evil but should be limited/controlled within tight guidelines to protect people, the land and the farmers.

hugh mccollum
I would like to know if the countries outside the eu who will send in cheaper vegetables are they going to follow the same spray regulations as those that will be implemented on our farmers?
