The interview from Drazel 7 continues with weed management. Drazel uses mechanical cultivators and finger weeding, claiming that this process takes care of any weeds. He touches briefly on the harm he feels that chemical herbicides cause to soil. According to Drazel, these herbicides destroy soil and in turn, has killed whatever chance the soil had to produce a yield. Drazel is adamantly against using chemicals in food production.
