    It is unfortunate that people affected by grief will always seek to blame a chemical these days.
    Having used a wide range of chemicals within the agricultural arena I can honestly say the Glyphosate is the least of my worries.
    Considering it has been on the market for at least 45 years and used in both broad acre and home garden/ parkland situations on a massive scale why is it only now that these claims are being made.
    Review all the safety data again. At the end of the day unless every human wants to hand weed all their crops and gardens we need to find a way to use effective chemicals safely.
    The alternative is too see tractors running around ploughing paddocks half a dozen times before crops are sown. This will adversely affect soil structure and organic matter levels will plummet.
