What is Landmaster Weed Killer?

Landmaster BW Herbicide is a post-emergence weed killer used for control or suppression of emerged weeds in a wide range of crop and non-crop settings. It contains 12.9% glyphosate, the same chemical alleged to be responsible for thousands of cases of cancers including non-Hodgkin lymphoma and leukemia.

What is Glyphosate?

Glyphosate is used to kill hundreds of types of plant life, yet Monsanto maintains the herbicide is virtually harmless to humans. However, recent studies have found toxic effects on laboratory animals. The issue of glyphosate’s toxicity has proven a heated debate in recent years, after the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) [1] said the weed killer is “probably carcinogenic” in March 2015.

How Dangerous is the Chemical?

Monsanto claims that glyphosate has no effect on animals because its mechanism of action inhibits an enzyme that is unique to plants. However, over the past decade, evidence has surfaced indicating that glyphosate may have other toxic effects.

What are Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs)?

The term “genetically modified organism” is a loaded term that could describe any food that has been altered from its natural state, but is most often associated with Monsanto’s “Roundup Ready” crops. These genetically-engineered crops carry the gene coding for a glyphosate-insensitive form of the shikimate pathway, which allows them to tolerate even large doses of the herbicide and survive without being affected.

• Damage vulnerable wild plant and animal populations
