High concentrate vinegar(>20%) works just as well. Unfortunately, it's expensive as hell. Part of that is because of low sales because of products like like glyphosate.

Can anybody really argue that we would be better off if we just got away from using products like glyphosate? I I can't say for certain if it's safe or not and neither can you. And in the era of lobbyists, fake news, regulatory capture and corporate cronyism, I'm not sure we'll ever really know if any of the products we use are safe.

Corn and soybeans wouldn’t be nearly as plentiful at their current cost

I'm guessing every farmer using it can say, with certitude, that things would be worse without glyphosate.

vinegar=acid

At 20% it is a strong, soil altering acid. Huge danger to eyes. Read the SDS

Would you like a list of the chemicals farmers had to use on crops prior to the advent of RoundUp resistant crops?
