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.
While countries around the world are banning or restricting pre-harvest glyphosate use, New Zealand is doing the opposite—still spraying and even planning to raise the limits.
New OIA documents reveal that New Zealand’s hospital system doesn’t track glyphosate exposure — and no agency appears to be connecting the dots. That’s a problem.
We tested honey. Then Weet-Bix. Now breakfast cereals. Glyphosate keeps showing up — in foods branded as “natural.” What if the label doesn’t match the truth?
A 2010 study found concerning levels of persistent organic pollutants in the breast milk of New Zealand mothers. Have we done enough to monitor the next generation's chemical exposure?
Organic labels don’t always mean glyphosate-free. That’s why a new certification is rising fast—built not on promises, but on proof. Is this the clean label we’ve been waiting for?
Our independent test of four Weet-Bix varieties found one with detectable glyphosate. It’s not a name-and-shame—it's a community-led baseline for safer food.
Who’s protecting the people who spray glyphosate? In a recent OIA response, MPI admitted it hasn’t assessed the health risks of glyphosate for contractors or workers—despite proposing to increase allowable residues in food. If no one’s responsible for tracking long-term exposure, what kind of system are we really running?
Hundreds of New Zealanders have filed ACC claims after exposure to Roundup. But what happened next? Was there any follow-up? Any warning about cancer risk?
