It's something that you have to tackle as a producer. If you don't, you lose money - it's that simple. Growing tomatoes, or grain, or anything else has an identical effect. Pests and diseases that cross cultivars and crop boundaries get stronger and stronger, necessitating stronger responses - pushing out weak cultivars. There is a wide array of strategies that producers employ to slow this, but they cannot stop it. It's how biology works.
It's unclear why or how carbon neutral or regenerative agriculture would make us more susceptible to super bacteria. Which exact policies did you have in mind?
Well, grass-fed cows emit much more methane than do grain-fed cows. So, in order to prevent methane emissions, you need to feed the cows with grain. And, of course, if you feed cows with grain, you probably keep them in small and dirty places where they need antibiotics to stay healthy. I've explained this at the beginning of my video.
