I feel like this is a good way to get a prion disease.
Getting prion disease from crops?
Yes. It is why prion diseases are crazy scary. From the chronic wasting Wikipedia article:
“ How the prions that cause CWD spread is unknown, but recent research indicates that prions can be excreted by deer and elk, and are transmitted by eating grass growing in contaminated soil.” https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_wasting_disease
Huh can prions pass through vegetation
