Farmers have to spray more of it every year - eventually, there's an end point. Roundup is not just Glyphosphate - some of those "more dangerous" herbicides get added in greater quantity every year. The long term effects of Roundup are likely to prove disastrous in many subtle ways - and for a lot of people, and many farms, the fixes will come too late.
