In Chaboussou's book healthy crop, he explains how pest and disease are drawn to free nitrogen and reducing sugars in plant sap, therefore making the a plant suitable food source. He describes this as Trophiosis, where the relationship between plant and parasite is nutritional in nature. This also means that the way to fix these pest and disease is also nutritional.

In this video we discuss the concept of trophiosis, the nutritional needs to prevent pest and disease attacks and how pesticides and herbicides make plants more prone to these attacks.
