| Abstract/Contents: | "Residues of the commonly-used herbicide glyphosate can be detected in food a year after treatments have been made. This herbicide is also a common cause of pesticide-related illness in California, the state with the best record-keeping. Glyphosate exposure damages or reduces the population of many animals, including beneficial insects, fish, birds, and earthworms. Glyphosate reduces the activity of nitrogen-fixing bacteria and the growth of mycorrhizal fungi. Glyphosate also increases the susceptibility of plants to diseases." |
