Thread: Rabbits on kiwifruit orchards

Recently I've been shooting rabbits on kiwifruit orchards and have been bringing the meat home for the family. However, the wife has decided she doesn't want to eat rabbit from the orchards as she's worried about pesticides, herbicides etc. or whatever may be sprayed on the orchards.

A quick google has brought up next to nothing. Does anyone have any insights into how safe or otherwise it would be to consume rabbits from such places? The best I've managed is the Consumer article below, which notes that no pesticide residues are found in green kiwifruit. I take this as a loose proxy for rabbits living in the same area.
