    Very interesting watch, but I have to disagree with the you. We have been farming organically since 1999 and have not worked any of are soils deeper than 80mm in 5 years now. Over the last 18 years we have seen huge improvements in our soil health and insect life which has followed through to our cereals. We can easily establish malting barley straight after 28 months of red clover without the use of Glyphosate. Our aim is to be in the fields as fewer times as possible and let nature do the work to produce us highly profitable sustainable crops.

    I am glad to see that not everyone in the UK is as blinded to the benefits of a no-till agricultural system that uses glyphosate, instead of mechanical tillage, to prepare fields for planting. The net benefits are exactly as you describe and the risks are few, if any. Despite decades of study, not one causal link has been established between glyphosate and cancer, yet here we are, hamstrung by unsubstantiated fears. The way forward is going to be challenging, indeed.

  • @OverJam52
    @OverJam52 6 років тому +13

    Sorry, I don't understand, mixed cover crops and living soils are some of the key principles of permaculture, which doesn't rely on glyphosate at all. On the other hand, farmers who work heavily the soil, leaving it bare, killing all life within it, are usually the ones relying on chemicals such as fertilisers, bare ground herbicides, etc.
    Really I'm confused, what does this demonstration have anything to do with glyphosate at all?

      glyphosate is easily avoidable in tilled cultivation since regular herbicides can be used on weed sprouts growing after tilling but in no till you need it to deal with cover crops, precedent's re growth and the few weeds that live through the cover, are well developed and might produce seeds at least in the first few years. no till easily use one pass of dose reduced glyph a year at most while tilled cultivation use one two or three paths of other herbicides mostly far more toxic that the glyphosate al while degrading the soil with cultivation. here is the time for ust to either chose to ban glyphosate and beef up the hurdle to organic no till or keep the glyphosate to ease the conversion to no till and the evolve it toward organic farming once the weeds a controlled after a few years all this political war against the glyphosate is but a witch hunt... and scoop hungry mass media keep pouring oils called stereotypes and false info into that fire

      Not with success, no. That's the point of the video. You see the two options for management. If you attempted no herbicide and no till, your crop would essentially fail. Grazing control of a plot would not provide a reasonably plantable venture. Fear of herbicides is sold to you. Some herbicides available do pose hazards, yes. But he's talking about glyphosate, a very safe and economical herbicide that is all but necessary to avoid tillage (and the concurrent greenhouse gas contribution) and maximize yield.

      Politically, it would be unthinkable to ban glyphosate in Europe and allow imports of heavily tainted food from Brasil or Argentina. That's why the decision is so hard to take. In all honesty, I am absolutely convinced that glyphosate is not safe - at all. Regardless, I can understand this is a very useful intrant for no-till agro techniques.
      Just imagine however, the export power the European (extended) agro industry would have if they could still combine the benefits of no-till techniques with pesticide free food. Sure they could charge premium. You guys have already done half of the hard work. from personal experience, I can tell you there is a lot of research in France to avoid tilling yet destroy soil covers mechanically (lot's of "funny looking" machines, believe me). Eventually something will come out. But I agree it will require more skills, that it will need to be customised on a case by case basis, and will not happen just tomorrow - although many people are on that track already.

All foods are in fact monitored by the EPA and FDA for safe levels of pesticides. It is easy to avoid exceeding the safe daily maximum exposure limit of 1.3 parts per million, which itself has a 100X safety margin for error on the safe side. For example, you can eat foods every day of your life that contain 80 times the safe legal limits of glyphosate with no effect to your health. In reality the legal limits are rarely ever exceeded and when they are, it is only by a small percentage which is detected and recalled.

      Hello Popeye Gordon. I respect your opinion. However, i do not think Glyphosate is the real culprit in the game here, as i explained in an earlier answer. I'll quote it again here: "Why such a focus on glyphosate? RoundUp consists of many more ingrediënts. Glyphosate as such does not stick to leaves and roots of plants, Monsanto adds surfactants to the product to achieve this. Glyphosate as such might or might not be safe, RoundUp as a whole certainly isn't. Just look up the MSDS sheets for all the ingrediënts of RoundUp. Do your research people and think again."
      And as you said before, it's not just about Monsanto (swallowed up by Bayer now) or Roundup, it's about the complete formulation as such. As somebody else pointed out, some of these surfactants contain dioxides. Which is -as we all know- not a healthy chemical. I still remember vividly how a Monsanto spokesman was explaining to a journalist that Roundup is "completely harmless". At that stage, the journalist digged under his seat and gave the Monsanto guy a bottle of Roundup. He then said: "can you drink this, please?". To which the Monsanto guy replied: "Are you mad?" ;-)

      well permaculture is one way. to create the environment to attrack enough beneficial insects and birds that eat the insects that eat the crops. a little loss is expected, but you get much healthier, more complex, complete food.
      masanobu fukuoka was successful without having a full permaculture setup. his book "the one straw revolution" showed how he averaged higher yields of crop on his mandarins and rice fields without using ANY pesticides or herbicides. he used no-till techniques. beneficial cover crops didnt allow for weeds to emerge + fixed nitrogen. his rice was only flooded for the beginning of the season and the fields were dry afterwards.
      monoculture and "modern" agriculture have created a broken system that ruins the beneficial bacteria in soil and deposits metals and other chemicals. with a monolith of a crop you cant attract a variety of insects and birds so you must then rely heavily on pesticides - and no cover cropping means heavy spraying of herbicide.
      permaculture is definitely sustainable. it would mean more farms supplying food locally- and many different food crops at a time. it would take a bit more labor, but i see that as a good thing considering the amount of jobs that are going to be lost to technology in the upcoming 10-20 years.
