Hope the same could happen in Brazil where federal Justice allowed this year the return of aerial spraying including with the use of drones. In Maranhão state, for ex, 30 liters of glyphosate per ha were being used when the maximum recommended amount is 6 liters!

So, I'm thinking that an alternative to #herbicide would be horticultural strength #vinegar mixed with yucca extract (or perhaps aloe vera) to help it to stick. I will be experimenting with this method over the summer and will post the results!
"Alternative herbicides fall into 7 product categories: Natural acids (vinegar + citric acids), Herbicidal soaps, Iron-based herbicides, Salt-based herbicides, phytotoxic oils (clove, peppermint, pine, citronella), corn gluten, and combination products (including ingredients from multiple categories). This fact sheet concentrates specifically on acetic acid (vinegar) products."
