No More Glyphosate NZ is an independent, community-funded project focused on transparency around glyphosate use, residues, and regulation in New Zealand. We investigate how pesticides, food production, and policy decisions affect public health and consumer clarity — so New Zealanders can make informed choices in a system that often hides the detail.
MPI is consulting on proposed changes to maximum food residue levels. While glyphosate isn’t included this time, other chemicals are — and your submission can make a difference before 5 December 2025.
Tobacco, alcohol, energy drinks — even toothpaste — carry warnings. Glyphosate-based weedkillers do not. Our open letter calls on the EPA and NZ Ministers to explain why New Zealanders are denied the same right-to-know protections.
The Missouri Supreme Court just upheld a $611 million Roundup verdict, confirming Bayer’s failure to warn consumers. Yet in New Zealand, Roundup is still sold without health warnings. If tobacco, alcohol, and even energy drinks carry labels, why doesn’t a product linked to cancer?
Is it Tylenol? Glyphosate? Antidepressants? The truth is, pregnancy today involves a cocktail of exposures. And glyphosate may be the hidden passenger no one talks about.
A groundbreaking mouse study reveals that even low-dose prenatal exposure to glyphosate — similar to real-world food levels — can trigger multigenerational effects. Why are New Zealand regulators still turning a blind eye?
Glyphosate doesn’t just kill weeds. New studies show it may also disrupt metabolism, alter gut bacteria, and contribute to obesity and liver disease—even at low doses.
Glyphosate-based weedkillers such as Roundup are everywhere — in honey, bread, cereals, and our bodies. With no unexposed group left, regulators can dismiss health risks as “inconclusive,” even while we’re all part of the experiment.
Glyphosate was sold as a simple weedkiller. But mounting evidence links it to autism, infertility, cancer, and ecological collapse. Is this our silent public-health emergency?
The 25th Australian Total Diet Study found glyphosate in breads, cereals, biscuits, and infant foods. Regulators say it’s “safe” at under 1% of the ADI — but from conception to breastmilk and beyond, glyphosate shadows us all.
Honey is marketed as “100% pure,” yet testing shows glyphosate residues slipping quietly into the jar. Beekeepers don’t want it, corporates work around it, and regulators call it “compliant.” But does legality equal safety — or has the social contract between producers, regulators, and consumers already been broken?
Our fourth round of honey testing shows glyphosate residues in four out of five retail honeys. Levels ranged from a non-detect in Hunt & Gather’s Kānuka honey to the highest result we’ve recorded so far — Wrights Mānuka (Kerikeri) at 146.7 ppb, exceeding New Zealand’s legal limit for honey.
