They (scientist) are injecting Scorpion venom into cabbages.
It will result in the use of less pesticide.
instead of spraying pesticides onto the plants, the plants will contain them in every single cell. The result is that the pesticide will end up in the bodies of people who eat the cabbage. Thus, human beings will become the unofficial pesticide sinks
