[QUOTE="Strungup52, post: 5973538, member: 116570"] Didn’t the whole world used to be organic? Somewhere along the way the population exceeded the ability of traditionally organic farmers to provide for them - and world wars happened which sparked the need to produce more at home - which led to increased use of ‘bag muck’ and wider adoption of chemical sprays. And now we are where we are as regards the wealthy segments of society demanding (?) organic for all and the loony left and greens suggesting that everyone should have an interest in their own bit of land to grow their own lettuces and lentils. All I can say is that there are going to be an awful lot of hungry people in the world. Incidentally, Glyphosate is an invaluable product used sensibly, as a tool to grow an RR crop not more than one year in four or for weed control at the beginning or end of the season in DD systems. Only the terminally naive would recommend its use more frequently than that. [/QUOTE]
