Roundup

[grannyjanny]

A fellow allotmenteer on our site suggested we used roundup for something on our plot. When I declined he told me that I have it anyway as farmers use it on rape & all sorts pre harvesting. I told a friend who posts on several gardening forums & she too was horrified when it was confirmed by farmers that this was the case with several crops. I did email the company whose rape seed oil I buy but didn’t get a reply. I now use a lot more organic coconut oil. I look out for organic rape but never come across it.` I read a really good book that changed my way way thinking a while ago. it’s called ‘We Want Real Food’ by Graham Harvey. A really good read & it explains how & why things changed in farming.
