Fifty-seven percent of national voters agreed that farmer control over weeds, diseases and pests on crops keeps food affordable, according to a poll exclusively obtained by the Daily Caller.

Out of the 1,000 voters surveyed, only nine percent considered government regulation over farmer use of pesticides to be a priority.

The national poll, from Trump pollster Adam Geller, was commissioned by CropLife America…in May.

Just three percent of voters ranked investigating farmers as a top priority for the MAHA Commission. Fifty-nine percent said the Commission should focus on enabling American kids to have access to healthier food while another nine percent said it should focus on helping kids get more exercise.

Forty-six percent of voters agreed with the statement: “American farmers need pesticides to grow enough food for the country. This is not just critical for making groceries more affordable but also reducing the trade deficit and protecting our national security.”
