Colombia weighs glufosinate to fumigate coca, reviving aerial spraying debate

Colombia may resume aerial eradication of coca crops using glufosinate ammonium, a herbicide with unknown health and environmental risks. The move signals a potential policy shift from the current government's prior opposition to glyphosate spraying, but details remain unconfirmed. This matters as it could affect counternarcotics strategy, US-Colombia relations, and rural stability.
