One side of this debate is: It's important to remember as we look to ways to protect the crops, that we have to protect the very things we want to leave the crops alone as well. Bugs may be a nuisance, but there are other creatures near by that feed off those bugs. We need to protect the food chain.If we take one thing out, where are we risking the very earth? Yet we also have to feed the people of the earth. So the crop does have to grow to be harvested.
The other side of this debate is: govts actually pay farmers to allow fields to remain fallow or to allow food to rot on the ground to manipulate prices on the stock market. So it's really difficult to take them seriously when they discuss their actions on poverty and food sourcing.

In in the European Union, there is sometimes a surplus of fruit and vegetables - due to an overproduction - that has to be dumped or destroyed. But I think that the situation was worse before. Maybe it has been regulated through such means as the one you just described above.
