Monsanto pretty much dominates the global seed market. I'd be surprised if there is still any truly nature wild seeds in human operated farms. It's simply not economical for farmers to farm on wild seeds any more, which is sad. And I don't trust Monsanto for their seeds either.
I'm not going to debate GMO, but this has zero to do with avoiding residual glyphosate in organic produce.
Looking at it's structure, it's relatively stable. I found many links on it's halflife; ~10-100 days in the environment. If low levels matter, then 10 halflifes might still be a problem.
Just some musings from a non-expert.
I don't know - and won't debate, since I don't know - if there is any risk to GMOs.
I don't know what risks there are to persistent glyphosate or AMPA exposure.
But I do know that pesticide resistance is different that pesticide producing in very fundamental ways.
Ruby Red Grapefruit? They made that by putting a nuclear radiation source in the middle of an orchard and seeing what happened. Killed some trees, but somewhere was a grapefruit that tastes better. No scientific study was done.
Organic - random mutations happen every generation, and none of them have ever been studied.

> Seeds are under attack everywhere. Under corporate pressure, laws in many countries increasingly put limitations on what farmers can do with their seeds and with the seeds they buy. Seed saving, a millenia old practice which forms the basis of farming, is increasingly becoming criminalised.
