Monsanto Roundup banned from sale in France, a slap ??

[izentrop]

My analysis and that of the Zetetians is based on scientific evidence and the notion of benefit / risk ratio ... Afterwards, we embroidered anything based on rumors.

zetetics is not a scientific reference, but a succession of points of view (also) of some scientists (or rather scientists) who differ from other points of view, even opposite, from other scientists.
For the risk benefit it is different because if it is the manufacturer of the product who estimates this profit / risk that poses the difficulties of knowing if they can be impartial judges of their own products, like besides all the chemicals put on the market. It took a century for asbestos to end up being recognized as definitely carcinogenic and nuclear was supposed to be safe until it boomed!

Super, we are still going to attend a bunch of amalgams and half-truths uttered by this dogmatic alter-globalist.

With the alterglobalist current, she often shares a conspiratorial and Manichean vision of the world. She sees in particular the Monsanto firm behind "a vast hegemonic project threatening the food security of the world, but also the ecological balance of the planet, and which is in line with the sulfurous history of Monsanto, of which it would even constitute the climax. "

I looked in part but I have a question following an article published on Monsanto and its Roundup

I heard France Culture a "specialist" say that Monsanto did not care about his Roundup because it had fallen into the public domain

And besides Monsanto seems to be fighting like a handsome devil to defend its Roundup

What is the truth

[Ahmed]

Considered in isolation, glyphosate sold under the "round up" brand is effectively no longer of interest compared to other competing commercial formulations, but placed in the global context of Monsanto's offer, it constitutes its cornerstone since it is functionally linked to GMOs resistant to this molecule. Due to the emergence of resistance to glyphosate among weeds, it has a role to play in herbicide cocktails associated with the cultivation of GMOs and therefore constitutes a central commercial piece of a very promising market.
This illustrates a classic feature of the market economy: the creation of scarcity. In this particular case, the functional defect of this farming system becomes a major commercial advantage for the firm which is at its origin. Instead of occupying a (large) static niche in the supply of seeds and agricultural treatment products, due to the adaptive biological dynamic which is the consequence of this practice, this leads to a commercial dynamic: the environment evolves, this which forces the agricultural approach to coevolve following it and it is an absolutely general phenomenon which goes as far as the collapse of an operating model (except in the minds of those who think that it will always be possible to find technical solutions to the problems successively generated by the previous solutions).

Monsanto earns less money with its glyphosate but there are BT seeds.
BT seeds grow despite the presence of round-ups.
Monsanto sells the idea that its product kills all plants except the seed it sells to you.
with its combination of products you have more yield because you have no competition from weeds.
as you have less work to weed you have time to produce more hectares.

if weedkiller is prohibited, BT seed is no longer used.
oops.

but they have not said their last word.

for example:
there were endocrine disruptors on the market called neo-nicotinoids
honey producers have, by struggle, succeeded in having them banned.
but today France has just accepted the placing on the market of a new endocrine disruptor on the pretext that it is not part of the family of neo-nicotinoids.
an American judgment says that it is the same thing but it would seem that in France it is not the same

OK understood

Finally, whether in field crops or in private gardens ... the irony of fate the enemies are (among others) ... plants, vegetation ... strange paradox

No it's the roundup ready that is resistant to roundup.
GMOs produce their own insecticide.
