Thank you for this. It seems that as you say monoculture is a beartrap waiting to spring. I wonder if there are any religions that require polyculture - is that the word? I wondered it to Gemini Flash, and the best it could come up with was "many Native American tribes, including the Iroquois, Cherokee, and Hopi, traditionally plant corn, beans, and squash together. This isn't just practical; it has deep spiritual significance, symbolizing the interconnectedness of life and the gifts of the earth."
