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.

A key glyphosate “safety” study has been retracted for ghostwriting and hidden conflicts. Use our ready-to-send templates to ask your school or council to pause glyphosate use.
The Ghostwritten Glyphosate Study That Misled Regulators for 25 Years
A cornerstone glyphosate “safety” study used by regulators for decades has just been retracted — after evidence showed it was ghostwritten by Monsanto. This changes everything about how glyphosate risk has been assessed, including here in New Zealand.
Glyphosate, Farming Rights, and the High Cost of Chemical Convenience
Farmers may have the right to farm — but do they have the right to pollute? As glyphosate residues turn up in bread, honey, milk and feed, who’s protecting our food?

Melanoma Risk and Glyphosate: What NZ Can Learn from New Global Research
Melanoma has long been framed as New Zealand’s “sunlight problem.” But new international research suggests herbicide exposure may also play a role — even after UV is accounted for. Could the same patterns be unfolding here? It’s time to ask harder questions about our chemical landscape.
Bayer Adds Another €1 Billion to Its Roundup Lawsuit Fund — What Does That Tell Us?
Bayer has quietly added another €1 billion to its Roundup lawsuit fund, pushing total reserves close to €7 billion. If glyphosate-based weedkillers are truly “safe,” why does the litigation never stop? And what does this growing legal fallout mean for New Zealand?

Glyphosate-Sprayed Feed: What It Does to Cows — and Why New Zealand Isn’t Testing

NZ Product Labelling Review: The Problems the Digital QR Trial Ignores
Before NZ rolled out its digital QR-code labelling trial, the Government’s own Product Labelling Review exposed far deeper issues — from weak enforcement to transparency gaps. Here’s what the Review actually said, and why the digital solution sidesteps the real problems.

New Zealand is trialling digital food labels — but while QR codes sound modern, are they just relocating the same old blind spots?
Glyphosate and Male Fertility: What the New Science Reveals
Glyphosate is showing up in semen and disrupting sperm in lab studies. Could New Zealand men be unknowingly affected — and what can we do about it?
