Do genetically engineered crops really increase herbicide use? | Control Freaks
weedcontrolfreaks.com/2012/10/do-genetically-engineered-crops-really-i.. based on actual NASS data, herbicide use between 1995 and 2006 showed no statistical trend either upward or downward for soybean herbicide use (the slope of the non-significant trend line is slightly positive). But for some reason, Dr. Benbrook forecasts an unprecedented increase in total herbicide use in soybean. He assumes that the increased use in 2006 is the new normal, instead of more variation around mean. Link by kingtut |

An Evaluation of Benbrook’s Pesticide Use Study and Evolving Super Weeds | Big Picture Agriculture
bigpictureagriculture.com/2012/10/an-evaluation-of-benbrooks-pesticide.. But telling us how many pounds gain in use of pesticides since the introduction of HR crops were introduced in 1996 falls short by not taking into consideration crop yields... when I did average yield calculations for corn and soybeans, results suggested that the time period of Benbrookâs 16-year study did use fewer pesticides when yield was taken into account.
