Note the distinction between "glyphosate" and "glyphosate-based herbicide". The former was well studied and presumed safe. My understanding is it is the actual formulations that are being claimed as unsafe now. I.e., if you ship your safe herbicide in an unsafe slurry you get cancer.
- nisa 8y agoInteresting. In the end in reality everyone is using some kind of "glyphosate-based herbicide" through and the whole discussion is about an chemical in isolation. Talk about misleading the public discourse :/ I've read that in practice the ingredients of "glyphosate-based herbicide" are often treated as trade-secrets and are not public, does anyone here have more information?
