it will either be banned or more and more plants will build a resistance to it.
Time we were out of the EU!

It's a bit rich to claim that Roundup is better for the environment as it means less cultivation, less fuel burnt, but forget to factor in the environmental impact of manufacturing Roundup.
Ever been in a chemical manufacturing plant or heard of Bhopal & Union Carbide?
Might as well say nuclear power is good for the planet, but ignore Chernobyl.

I have heard of Bhopal. And been to several chemical manufacturing plants. Total environmental audit maybe. What will be will be, am sure the green lobby will get their way as the direction of travel for a rich financially Europe is to go to organic production. Ironic that reduced cultivation or no cultivation seems the flavour of the period for carbon capture. Time will tell if it is correct. Other regions of the world will possibly take a different route. Hey ho.

Been wracking my brain trying to remember the name of it I remember it being used on couch in spring barley stubble .

We will be using ours tomorrow funily enough.
We have a Poplar and Willow shelter belt to put in, a pass with it , lay double layer of membrane (hope the wind dies down) and then plant.
I love that sort of work.

I don't think any of those cans contain Roundup Pro 360...

Plenty used in the north and Scotland pre harvest. Less down south
As its legal I see no problem with it
It it still detectable in the grain after harvest. I hosted a group of European maltsters in July and one of them said he'd found it in a batch of U.K. Malting barley shipped from the south coast. I asked him if he'd pay a small premium for a guarantee that I wouldn't use it and he said no. The residues were under the legal limit but readily detectable nonetheless.
