Around here in the northeast some of the cheapest land available is land that was used for orchard production before WW II and DDT. DDT is practically like baby oil to the earths butt compared to the copper arsenates that preceeded it. Decades later this non-synthetic concoction continues to reside in dangerous levels in the soil and underground water in the vicinity of these old orchards. Yeah, before the war some stuff was being used that is much more dangerous than anything being used now.
