You can't pull the wool over the eyes of today's informed consumer. That image from 2014 is representative of modern ag more and more. The annual survey in Iowa is very revealing when they asked about herbicide resistant weeds. 73% now use tillage because glyphosate is failing. Sure 30+ years ago it enabled no till or min till reducing erosion from conventionally farmed land which was tilled multiple times per year. Looks like the chemical experiment has run its course.

Yes, you don't get to feed 8 billion people by farming with technology from the 1940s. Agricultural innovation, such as glyphosate has saved more lives than any Greenpeace campaign ever has.

Fun fact the anti-glyphosaters won't tell you: New herbicide resistant weeds were developing faster before glyphosate resistant crops were introduced, not after

That was ten years ago.

Do those houses look 10 years old to you?
the pic is from the dust bowl 30’s just copyrighted 10 years ago. The Simpson Sears house in the forefront kinda gives it away !

My brother lived in Lethbridge in the 80's.
He dreaded the windy stretches in the spring as the sky would be black for days.

Special Areas in Alberta basically blew down to the hard pan in the 30's. 2.5 million acres.

Every field used to have an overgrown blow ridge in the fence line, even up here in the swamp.

Many now days have never experienced it.

Some forget.
