Glyphosate

In an important step in the ongoing process for their review of glyphosate, in an April 30, 2019 Office of Pesticide Program Update, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) stated that they continue to find that glyphosate is not a carcinogen, and there are no risks to public health when glyphosate is used in accordance with its current label. According to the April 30 update, “The agency’s scientific findings on human health risk are consistent with the conclusions of science reviews by many other countries and other federal agencies. While the agency did not identify public health risks in the 2017 human health risk assessment, the 2017 ecological assessment did identify ecological risks. To address these risks, EPA is proposing management measures to help farmers target pesticide sprays on the intended pest, protect pollinators, and reduce the problem of weeds becoming resistant to glyphosate.”
