A simple google search brings up these and more. I believe the sources are genuine.

I haven't used it or any other weedkiller as I pick weeds for my rabbits to eat.

I even sow plantain.

Thanks for posting those links and of course you should do entirely as you prefer  .

I do note that both organisations are hardly neutral on the chemical front though ...

Yes not neutral at all but i was just interested in why it was banned for certain use in australia.

Of course, also bear in mind that the back of the glyphosate pack is hardly neutral either.

True.

Maybe i just dont trust em !
