insects still eat a lot of crops sometimes, but the answer kind of depends on who you mean by “people”. farmers use pesticides and gmo plants that resist bugs and diseases. hobby gardeners pay close attention to their crops and are quick to notice and deal with any infestations. often they are growing plants not native to their area, so there aren’t any bugs around that know a meal is on offer. on top of all that, if there get to be too many bugs around, the birds notice and have a feast themselves.
