Herbicides are important tools for reforestation of harvest sites where a temporary reduction of competition is needed to re-establish forest cover. Controversy with respect to human health and risks to aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems as a result of glyphosate use is clouding the benefits of this silvicultural tool.
