I take it that you don't believe in the efficacy of weeding your
garden.
It
must be a sad, weedy lot.

Strange attitude. Theres all sorts of strange things growing in my
garden.
No doubt you'd hate the wasp farm at the bottom of my garden too.

ie. more extreme control and more extreme monoculture.

Why bring monoculture into the argument?
The use of glyphosate and pursuing a practice of monoculture are
separate
questions.

By no means. Most of the real arguments about GM are about how we are
led
further down the garden path in that respect.

And WTF are you doing growing glyphosate resistant plants if you do
not
want
a savage monoculture?

You have no idea of what constitutes a monoculture.

My country of birth produces a very wide range of vegetable foodstuffs.
Most of those farms would be more productive if glyphosate resistant
varietes of plants were available.

So you are now making no claims about it being bad for the environment.

I have never made any claims about glyphosate being bad for the environment,
since I sincerely doubt whether it is in fact bad for the environment.

You are simply talking about how good it is for industrialised farming.

Farming in South Africa is not a particularly highly industrialised
activity, except for pockets here and there.
