Glyphosate disrupts honeybee brains, cuts foraging by 13%

Glyphosate exposure reduces honeybee foraging activity by 13.4 percent The herbicide disrupts brain chemistry linked to learning and motivation Researchers found altered neurotransmitters in bees that consumed glyphosate A colony-wide drop in foraging threatens honey production and survival The study challenges long-held assumptions that glyphosate is safe for bees For decades, regulators and farmers assumed the world's most widely used herb…
