| So, let me ask this... it was pointed out that Glyphosate/ Roundup has been in use for 30+ years? So, if glyphosate is going to cause tumors, or pre-dispose someone to have tumors, you would think that someone - some researcher - would be able to look at the population in general, and I am talking about the USA population, and see an increase in tumors. And then they would be able to start breaking down the population and find out that those who use glyphosate - and use it frequently - are having this higher incidence of tumors. That would make sense to me. However, I don't know that anyone has been able to show an increase in the incidence of tumors in the USA population. Or maybe someone already has, and I have not heard of it. Has this happened? the other thing that I would point out.... for those that say Glyphosate is destroying the soil life, I have to ask: why is the USA corn yields going up at the rate it has? IF glyphosate was damaging the soil, you would think it would be showing up in depressed crops yields. So far, I don't know that it has been doing that. I will also add.... if glyphosate in the soil is damaging soil life, why isn't it depressing weed seed germination? I don't know any farmer that says we are seeing less weed seed germination where glyphosate is being used. So, why aren't our soils sterile already?
