Комахи не з’їдають третину всієї їжі на Землі | Insects Do Not Eat One-Third of All Food on Earth

Do insects really eat one-third of all the food on Earth? There is no reliable tally supporting that share. A different estimate is often cited: the FAO says plant pests and diseases together reduce global crop yields by 20–40% each year. That group includes not only insects but also disease-causing organisms and other pests; this is crop loss, not the share of all food produced that insects consume.
