The French Pesticide Victims' Compensation Fund is paying compensation to a teenager who has suffered numerous illnesses since birth as a result of glyphosate. This is the first case of its kind in France.
Since March 2022, the child, now aged 16, has been receiving €1,000 a month from a French compensation fund (Fonds d'indemnisation des victimes des pesticides), after scientific experts established a causal link between his mother's exposure to glyphosate when she was pregnant and her son's birth defects.
