@RepThomasMassie@RepMikeLevin You don’t bother to read the government’s pdf? It’s not asking to limit liability, it asking the EPA to be the ‘authority’. Clown move.
@JKMunchie@laurenlee@simonmaechling@kevinfolta Then why spit disparagement at the roundup desiccant argument? If I’m ’wrong’, (I’m not) it’s splitting hairs.
I’ve directed and applied ag chem ‘on label’ 40 years. Why be an ‘anti’ if you are on this side of the tribe?
Btw: Tort lawyers are the other side.
@JKMunchie@laurenlee Talk to an ag person. 99.5% of the people on here no nothing about actual production agriculture. These folks project, lie, make it tribal and serve themselves.
Or check with an expert: I really respect and like experts @simonmaechling@kevinfolta -
and others.
@Ab_1_1_1_1@dale_wen It’s not that I think you’re not smart, I just think there is so much you don’t know about the breeding technique called GMO. Breeding advancements w AI will drive crop yields faster and faster…one day the ‘Luddite (love that word) Anti Crowd’ will look back with regret
@hes_not_ur_mom@JoeAugello@NancyMace Okay you caught me. It’s used as a desiccant on a minute percentage of all acres in the country. Maybe 1mm out of 200mm ac of crops. Wheat is 2 or 3% (of 40mm).
The 99% is used safely as burndown and weed control up to the reproductive stages. Pre flower.

Fortunately, facts don't care about his opinions.
I've written a lot about glyphosate and other pesticides over the years.
Spoiler alert - they're safe. Here's one worth reading:

@Matthew1530896@SamaHoole It can’t. Thats the deal. The plant is mature and the juice cannot ‘translocate’ into a mature plant.
They just made up a story.
@SamaHoole Worrying about what’s in the oat milk when it’s in a drink many times more toxic and carcinogenic than the herbicide you are lambasting is a bit weird.
