I just realized our agriculture sector is not bad at all

The only agricultural controversy our country had that makes the international news are the milkfish fishkill, some incident of Foot in mouth disease in Pork but its not as serious as what happened overseas, then the genetically modified corn controversy that makes a village sick but thats it. We dont have cases like pesticide mass poisoning,cancerous genetically modified food, vegetables rich in salmonella or milk with cancerous chemicals, those controversies had been common in United States,China and more countries that are richer than our country. They have higher technology in agriculture but they have more controversies when it comes to the livestock ,fruits and vegetables. I remember a news about a salmonella outbreak of beans sprouts , Bean sprouts is one of the purest and most nutritious vegetables ever. In our country there is no incident of bean sprout salmonella poisoning, Basically in our country, Mung beans are sprouted in sterelized cheesecloth and water, in europe and United states, they sprout them in Animal manure. I know there are some sanitary controversies in our country too but we have less incidents of vegetable poisoning. I think our farmers do use manure in some crops but its dried and sterilized before turned into fertilizers. from what I know the popular fertilizer in our country are rice hulls (skin of rice) Guano(its bat manure) and snails. I just realized the food we eat is much more safer than the vegetables in United States. and to think of it, we only have few organic farms,
