Today I wore some old First Line Seeds gear in honour of Peter Hannam. He introduced me to the seed industry. He was an innovator, a great leader, motivator and had a tremendous impact on Agriculture. He taught us change is good. RIP Peter. You will be missed and never forgotten

Huge news from @BayerTraitsCA!

Introducing NEW Vyconic soybeans with 5 herbicide tolerances: glyphosate, glufosinate, dicamba, 2,4-D and mesotrione based herbicides.

Now that's flexibility. More here: https://t.co/6DAhphoomL

Is glyphosate a dangerously high toxic agricultural chemical. In his 2017 study “Long-term trends in the intensity and relative toxicity of herbicide use,” Andrew Kniss analyzed herbicide usage and associated toxicities over a 25-year period. The study found that Glyphosate, in particular, accounted for a significant portion of herbicide applications��26% in maize, 43% in soybean, and 45% in cotton. However, due to its relatively low chronic toxicity, glyphosate contributed minimally to the chronic toxicity hazard in these crops: 0.1% in maize, 0.3% in soybean, and 3.5% in cotton.

The 2017 study provides a comprehensive analysis of the toxicity of herbicides used in U.S. agriculture over a 25-year period. since the introduction of GM crops in the mid 1990s. The study specifically ranks glyphosate’s toxicity relative to other herbicides and finds that it is one of the least toxic herbicides available.

Key Findings and Statistics:
1.Acute Toxicity Ranking:
•Glyphosate was found to have lower acute toxicity to humans than 94% of all herbicides analyzed in the study.
•It was also less acutely toxic than many common household substances, including vinegar and table salt.
2.Chronic Toxicity Ranking:
•Glyphosate exhibited lower chronic toxicity than 90% of all herbicides, making it one of the safest options for long-term exposure.
3.Usage vs. Toxicity Contribution:
•While glyphosate accounted for a significant percentage of herbicide use (26% in maize, 43% in soybean, and 45% in cotton), it contributed minimally to chronic toxicity hazards:
•0.1% of chronic toxicity risk in maize
•0.3% in soybean
•3.5% in cotton
4.Comparison to Organic and Alternative Herbicides:
•Many organic pesticides (such as acetic acid, copper-based fungicides, and rotenone) exhibit significantly higher acute and chronic toxicity compared to glyphosate.
•Some natural pesticides, including botanical insecticides, have lower LD₅₀ (lethal dose) values, meaning they are more toxic than glyphosate when considering their effects on human health and non-human animals.

Can you think of a Canadian product that’s better than an American one?

Honestly curious.
