Is Glyphosate Safe? The Food Industry Sounds Off

January 13, 2022
KEYWORDS American Soybean Association / glyphosate

On January 10, 2022, the American Soybean Association (ASA) reaffirmed its stance that glyphosate is non-carcinogenic and can be used safely. Groups representing agricultural growers, retailers, landscaping, and golf course professionals responded with strong support for continued access to glyphosate following oral arguments in litigation regarding the registration of glyphosate. The 10 groups are all parties in the case supporting glyphosate’s continued registration. ASA says that glyphosate remains one of the safest, most effective tools that growers, landscapers, and other users have to manage economically damaging weeds and maintain important conservation practices.

The groups reminded the Court that nearly every pesticide regulatory body in the world that has studied glyphosate—including the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)—has found that the herbicide is non-carcinogenic and can be used safely. As one of the most widely-studied chemistries in the world, the body of scientific literature on glyphosate is robust and in strong consensus regarding its safety, says ASA. The groups strongly agree with EPA’s finding that, when used according to the label, glyphosate does not pose a risk of concern to human health.
