I think the folks that are defending Roundup the strongest in this thread, are the ones that are the most dependent on Roundup to grow their crops, the way they want to, large acreages , no till. And it works, no argument. The real discussion begins with, how do you continue to farm, if there was no longer Roundup. On my farm, I would hardly notice, as I am not depending on Roundup. I do grow corn, and have used Roundup for weed control in the past , but there are other options. Most farmers that are dependent on Roundup grow only corn and soybeans, and do not rotate their land into hay, or cereal crops. When farming was mixed vs mono crops, a farmer had opinions, example would be not growing row crops on highly erosion prone land. But modern Ag doesn�t lend itself to smaller fields and strip crops, everyone just wants to have fields 100acres or more in size. If Roundup is banned some day in the future, it won�t be the end of the world, just the end of current cropping practices.
