To recap, you contradicted drewmal above, who said:

> it leads to loads of herbicide usage (glyphosate). The process of desiccation also leads to loads of glyphosate being used just prior to harvest, on non ‘Roundup Ready’ (glyphosate resistant) crops

You replied "Ummm no, less herbicide actually".

The Nature study you claimed supported your assertion said herbicide usage was steadily up, and more was used on non-roundup-ready crops.

I don't know if you meant "no" to reply to one or the other of those claims or both, but it doesn't matter because they both agree with drewmal.
