Major problem w/ it.
Glyphosate does not give plants aids. It stops cellular replications (mitosis) and without that the plant dies. Any weakened
living thing is much more open to invading pathogens and predatory critters so after glyphosate is applied one might expect to
see more pathogens.
BTW I am not a fan of round up ready crops.

If the only citation was a single European journal, then he has scant evidence. |
