I figured your response would basically consist of that :stoned:

The article I quoted still makes some good points. Roundup has been being used some 40-45 years now.

That is a relatively long time compared to some things but still not enough for many long term effects to become fully apparent.

I still have yet to see you say anything about all the dead bee's from pesticide soaked GMO plants.

it doesnt make any good points, it's drivel


bee's die, piss poor management is what causes it in most cases. today the US
alone has increaded in the number of colonies here but more than 200k, yes,
200,000 more colonies today than there was just 5 years ago. do you think that
is the result of pesticides?

That is not caused by GMOs, it's caused by overuse of insecticides. Pest resistant GMOs have reduced total pesticide use and the mechanisms they use are far more targeted, reducing the environmental impact of pest control. That neonicotinoids may be being used indiscriminately is not a problem caused by GMOs, it is farmers violating best practices for pesticide use. Getting rid of GM crops would not solve this problem.

actually there's been an increase in pesticide use but it's been due to the
organic market, yes, most people believe that organic producers dont use
pesticides but they do, what they use isnt engineered to target only certain
classes of pests but instead tend to be broad spectrum pesticides that kill
indiscriminately

the use of neocontinoids and other pesticides has been ruled out in colony
collapse disorder as has the use of GMOs, these claims are more propaganda
by the anti-GMO lobby

Do you have a source for neonicotinoids being ruled out in colony collapse disorder? I just read  this article by Steven Novella, which is from 04/30/15, which didn't mention that, and Steven Novella is typically on point and up to date.

So you are saying you think 45 years is plenty of time to test the long term effects? Because things like genetics change on a much larger timescale.

I don't think I ever said that but pesticide use goes hand in hand with GMO plants.

If pesticide use is going down so much what is up what is up with this USDA chart?

Pesticide Use & Markets

Quote:

Farmers have widely adopted GM technology. Between 1996 and 2013, the total surface area of land cultivated with GM crops increased by a factor of 100, from 17,000 square kilometers (4,200,000 acres) to 1,750,000 km2 (432 million acres)




So shouldn't this huge increase have caused some kind of dip in the total amount used?

Many things can be considered a pesticide. I grow hot peppers, I can boil them and other plants such as tobacco down into a spray and wallah a pesticide.

Local organic produce around here is almost always also labelled pesticide free, at least from the best sources.

The trend on that chart is down. Also, it looks like that's charting the absolute quantity used, so even holding steady over 20 years would be a decline in use.

were you not the one making the claim that corporations have been known to lie?

do you think these farmers that grow organic produce are not corporations?
there have been a number of organic dairies busted using hormones to extend
milk production, organic growers using unapproved pesticides and herbicides,
organic cattle with antibiotics and feeds that wouldnt be approved. while
you're busy mistrusting monsanto it's not them that seem to be breaking all
the rules, hell, they're under closer scrutiny tan nearly any other company


BTW... tobacco/nicotine isnt approved for use on crops, it is also one of those
indiscriminate killers of all insects including the beneficial ones, not to
mention it can spread disease such as the tobacco mosiac virus.

you kids seem to be under the impression that 'organic' and 'natural' mean safe

Here is a statistic from a USDA paper you can find here: Pesticide Use in U.S. Agriculture: 21 Selected Crops, 1960-2008

632 million pounds used in the USA in 1981, 516 in 2008. That is a decent decline but really not much. Still a fuckton of pesticides.

:lol: I am aware of that, I would never use tobbacco/ nicotine on any plants I intended to consume in any way. Also who said I don't distrust other things?

I fail to see your point. You just pivoted from "GMOs have not reduced pesticide use", whi ch they have, to " Pesticides are a thing".

How to get started in bulk:

BOD's Simple as FUCK Still Air Box
PastyWhyte's Easy Agar Tek
Munchauzen's Cultivation Video Series
How EvilMushroom666 Prepares His Grains (I use jars with Synthetic Filter Discs)
What is G2G? (Grain-to-Grain)
Damion5050's Coir Tek (I use 5.5 - 6 quarts of water instead of 4. Also ignore step 13 and ignore the monotub completely. The only purpose of this tek is to show you how to make a simple substrate. I also add gypsum to it but not necessary)
Spitball's Monotub Tek (A liner isn't necessary but is useful)
Use 6500k lights throughout the whole process. When you wake up, turn the light on. When you go to sleep turn the light off. It's as simple as that.
