I find it interesting that Thailand is banning the herbicide glyphosate, which is widely used in the U.S. The U.S. is protesting this ban, and I wondered why until I realized that it could include a ban on importing food from the U.S. grown with glyphosate. One chemical and one relatively small export market might not be a big deal, but food is one thing the U.S. does still export in enormous quantities, and if bans like this spread on a larger scale and encompass more chemicals and biotechnologies, it could start to affect our agricultural practices. Probably for the better, but it could be complicated.
