Australia’s wheat yields have soared despite harsh climate conditions. Innovation gets the credit — but what if glyphosate is the real reason? We dig into what’s driving the so-called “wheat revolution.”
When the nightly chorus of frogs suddenly stopped near a suburban golf course, one resident wondered: did herbicides silence them? Within days, the weeds around the pond browned and died. Could the spray meant to tame grass also be pushing away—or even killing—the frogs?
Auckland Council contractors used over 20 tonnes of glyphosate in 2024 — much of it sprayed straight into roadside gutters that drain to the sea. Our article investigates the hidden risks.
We were promised bigger harvests and better efficiency. But are glyphosate-based GM crops actually yielding less? Some scientists say yes — and the numbers back it up.
What happens to soil after years of Roundup use? From microbes to minerals, we explore how glyphosate leaves a lasting—and often overlooked—legacy underground.
As glyphosate resistance spreads globally, early signs are emerging here in New Zealand. If our most relied-on weedkiller stops working—what's the plan?
A new study reveals that even brief contact with glyphosate can change gene expression in bees' brains. What does that mean for pollinators—and for us?
Glyphosate doesn’t just wash away. It can linger in soil for months—sometimes years—building up over time and disrupting the microbial life that plants depend on. From farms to schoolyards, this invisible residue may be contaminating the very ground our food grows in—and our children play on.
Glyphosate is often sprayed with precision — but it doesn’t always stay where it’s sprayed. This article explores the overlooked risk of spray drift, and how it may be exposing our communities, ecosystems, and children to harm without consent or warning.
