2014/11/22 – Quimili, Argentina: Ricardo “Gaucho”, a member of the National Movement of Indigenous Farmers (MOCASE), points to the trees showing that the part facing the cultivation field are dying because of the usage of glyphosate during the production of soy. Many teachers complain that the school sometimes is also pulverized by glyphosate during the soy season putting in risk the children that study in the school. This is not an isolated case, many of the schools in the region are next to plantation fields. (Eduardo Leal)
