The advertising suggests buying RR and glyphosate solves your
problem. But no, rotation &c is needed.

Could you quote this? snip


Monsanto ad, for Roundup Ultra in RR cotton:
"The only weed control you'll need"

http://www.weeds.iastate.edu/weednews/mon-ad.GIF



Interesting that ad is offering Roundup with a hood to use on weeds
in non-GM cotton crops, too.

I read Monsanto is to split into separate herbicide and GM
companies. It was said that Monsanto is to sell its chemical branch.
I thought that that side of the business was the more profitable.

It looks like GM may be being downplayed. Monsanto has not had
sufficient financial success, has it?

but who believes advertising anyway


If many people didn't believe it it would not produce results,
therefore why would so much money go into it?
