Ahh, so a bunch of late night drunks talking trash again?

Has it ever occurred to you to verify or fact check your sources of
information?

In addition to Glycines. Palmer Amaranth is also resistant to:
selected ALS-inhibiting herbicides.
acetolactate synthase inhibitor
imazethapyr and thifensulfuron.
dinitroaniline herbicides

Also according to weedscience.org there are ~ 365 unique herbicide
resistant biotypes. Palmer A. doesnąt even make the 10 worst weeds.
So to say Monsanto is responsible for creating a łSuperweed˛ is pure
BS, somewhere along the lines of the Salem Witch trials and WMDs in
Iraq. Ya donąt even have to believe weedscience, try running a
search for Palmer Amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) for yourself instead
of listening to some writer who got lucky enough to have their story
told and retold enough times to make a mainstream news mag and then
referenced for a late night fringe group.

Nice list. Are you saying that these also developed resistance to
glyophosphate?


Might try saying its an important organic food foodstuff again and see
if the organic movement will buy it!

Where did I say that, gunny?

(usual political propaganda snipped)


Gunny, you have obviously lost your mind. Take up your problem with
Bloomberg Business Week.
