[QUOTE="John Slejpner, post: 6411998, member: 819"] I think the message is to avoid using it as much as possible. Pre harvest use carries the highest likelihood of residues getting into the end product & patience would be a better way of cutting when ripe. The residue levels will be what gets it banned IMO. It's endemic in bread, beer etc. even though it is below the legal threshold for any kind of toxicity. I agree with your comment on the lazy use of it. Glyphosate is already in the firing line with lots of incorrect facts in the media. We will all mourn its loss - you in particular with your no till system... This is hitting nail on head.... So...decide not to apply to anything pre-harvest unless absolutely necessary (ie rubbish osr) Solve the Hereward hagberg problem by not growing Hereward ! etc etc Brisel, i would contend the marginal benefit of hitting immature weed seeds pre-harvest cannot in any current context be considered "using glyphosate responsibly" Certainly not if there is any chance said crop is going for human consumption. Armour plated tin hat on. [/QUOTE]
