There are legitimate reasons for opposing the widespread use of herbicides in agriculture. This practice is enabled by GMOs.

I don't buy that argument. GMOs enable the use of low toxicity herbicides, like glyphosate (demonizing propaganda notwithstanding). And herbicides allow low impact farming practices like no-till, or substitute for terrible practices like slash-and-burn in the tropics.
