These pests can cause extensive damage, from leaf feeding and stalk tunneling to grain destruction.

Editor's Notes
- #19: Design thinking - Human-centered design is a creative approach to problem solving. Moving from a problem space to a solution space. It is based in is base in deep empathy by trying to deeply understand the spoken and unspoken needs of the people you are designing the solution for. Process that starts with building a deep empathy for the people youre designing for and ends with new solutions that are tailor made to suit their needs. Generating tons insights and ideas; building a bunch of prototypes; sharing what youve made with the people youre designing to get feedback. Give me thumbs up if you have ever experience any of these things with collaborating?
