10000 acres this year. Not one sprayed

Wow that crop burnt to nothing I wouldn't use glyphos either.

And this is why folks, killer pesticides are slow to remove off the market. Captured govt agencies.

I didn’t realize how hard herbicides were on my crop until this year. Checking brix thru the growing season. It didn’t look like it hurt the crop but the brix went down aways after herbicide application for a couple weeks

What about the other 9999 acres you can't see from there? Gly reapproved in the EU with conditions. No more preharvest use allowed. That will have a ripple effect across the world. Also here's more proof to stop big pharma from marketing it.

glad i can see the finish line

Big Lentil proved you don’t need pre harvest Gly though .
so does drought and or swathers .
We will survive , did long before pre harvest Gly .
comparing Australia harvest conditions to Western Canada is as absurd as solar capacity, different worlds mate .
You been gone that long to remember what early snow and or hard frost does to standing crops ?
No doubt it is coming to Canada , most of us have seen this coming for many years , it is no big revelation. But comparing Australia harvest conditions to western Canada is idiotic at best
Something different about growing conditions and terminal frost dates if you may recall
i am sure most sub tropical areas have way longer growing seasons than northern temperate climates .
Not sure though , better ask Chuck . He is expert on all matters

I would have missed it this year. It served its precise purpose... The termination of Russian Thistle, and hopefully sterilization of its seed well past hard dough stage on my cwad. Crop was poor (sub 15), so swathing and picking up would have meant losses in the neighborhood of 10+%. Glad it was an available option. If we all used it "on-label" there wouldnt be an issue.

Absolutely agree

I'm not comparing Oz to Canada at all.Last year it was mostly all sprayed preharvest. You have no idea. So why the antagonistic response?

well there is a reason you don’t understand. If you actually farmed here you might have a grasp . It is you that has no idea .
most only use Gly when necessary

What issue are you referring to?
Residue in food?
Weed resistance?
Chelation of essential minerals?
User safety?
Non Hodgkin's lymphoma?
Childhood cancers?
Gut microbiome disruption?
Soil biology compromise?
Crop disease catalyst?
Shall I go on?
It's pretty much a free for all farming conventionally with toxic chemistry.

What reason do you assume it is that I don't understand whatever your deflecting to? I did farm in canada. I was one of the first guys running around like a headless chicken spraying preharvest on my own farms and as a contractor in the early 90s.
Be specific about your opinion on what I have no idea about.

Only use it when necessary?
Ok that's fine then. After all the govt will compensate you for getting sick right?

Out of the thousands of farmers I know over the years myself and through others that have directly dealt with and handled round up for decades , I know of absolutely no one ever getting sick from it , even remotely. This is concentrated glyphosate, not diluted stuff from Walmart.
No doubt you’re on some crusade, just don’t distort reality.
best of luck on your crusade

Not on a crusade! Who's distorting reality? You are. Thousands of farmers? So at least 2 thousand. Not credible at all.
Maybe you should testify in the class action lawsuits as an exprt witness. You might overturn the guilty verdicts and Bayer could get their 20 billion back.
Reality is many farmers still fall for the marketing of its safety, just like the drug scam of the past 3 years.
