NOTE

Vertical integration and glyphosate exposure in crops

The company discussed in the snip has a vertically integrated system from the seed to the marketplace. The use of glyphosate in crops such as corn, soybeans, and cotton is minimal because the seed has not formed when the crops are sprayed. However, oats, which are sprayed at the end of the season, show higher levels of glyphosate because they are not genetically engineered to resist it. This practice makes harvesting easier but results in greater glyphosate exposure in oats.
