Glyphosate Safety Studies
Glyphosate is a versatile herbicide that has been used for more than 50 years by farmers, land managers, gardeners, and others to simply, safely, and effectively control problematic weeds. Since the introduction in 1974, glyphosate-based products have become the most commonly used herbicides in the world because of the ability to control a broad spectrum of weeds, the extensive economic and environmental benefits, and the strong safety profile. In the 1990s, combining glyphosate with crops that could withstand applications of this herbicide transformed agriculture in many parts of the world and modern agriculture biotechnology began. Our portfolio of glyphosate-based products will continue to be a very important part of our integrated weed management (IWM) offerings.
