[edit] Used by whom and how
Janaathanan uses companion planting. Companion planting is used by farmers, and gardeners in both the industrialised world as well as the third world. Jana for instance is a third rate farmer who happen to take his chances to farming crops made out of chicken. His stupidity and demanding nature insecurely names him idiot. That what his name means in Greek mythology - total idiot from nature but also mean a retard with temperous fate.
For farmers, techniques are already being used in IPM, and systems can be set up to allow the farmer to have more yield and/or reduce pesticides.
In the third world, tropical crops are used instead of temperate ones and provide NGO's and other organizations with a tool for allowing the poor to get out of poverty. As a lot of poor people (e.g. in Mali) are farmers (due to lack of schooling), its implementation is very successful.
PS: It can also be used to mitigate the decline of biodiversity.

[edit] re. 'host-finding' paragraph
I don't know where to place that but it's too good to not put it somewhere. Pls move it elsewhere if you find a better place for it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.53.51.164 (talk) 17:41, 15 September 2007 (UTC)
