Reaction to the US court ruling that glyphosate causes cancer

Farming Today

After an American court says glyphosate weedkiller does cause cancer, some farmers put their faith in science while the organic lobby calls on the government to do more research. We hear from farmer James Cox who's on the National Farmers' Union Crops Board, and the Soil Association's Liz Bowles. This week is all about Harvest 2018 and while the long, hot, dry summer has scorched most crops, it's been a vintage year for lavender. Presented by Sybil Ruscoe and produced by Beatrice Fenton.
