Great News!!! Keep it up.

Farmers in my state are wanting the “attacks” against glyphosate to stop, because our crops cannot grow without it. Well, there must be an alternative, and if the facts are correct, why would they want to destroy people’s health for an herbicide? 🤷🏼‍♂️

BTW: An Amish friend of mine farmed without spraying anything on his food—he was basically organic but without the certificate. He told me that you just need to rotate the crops and know what bugs will kill other bugs.

The tendency to apotheosize farmers runs into the fact that they can be the most hard headed and duplicitous critters. They refused to listen to soil erosion authorities and gave us the dust bowl. Public health labs have to test for antibiotics because they WILL sell milk from infected cows under treatment. Some form of vigilante organization of farmers may be needed to self regulate outlaw farm practice to keep inconsistent gov interference out of the picture as much as possible

yup, the quest for ethical behavior is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
