To determine how the author uses testimonial evidence in the passage, it is important to analyze the context and content of the testimonial itself, as well as the author's overall arguments and objectives.

If the testimonial evidence is used to support the effectiveness of a specific practice (like a combination of light herbicide use and no-till farming), then the correct response is:

**to argue for a combination of light herbicide use and no-till farming.**

However, if the testimonials instead emphasize the negative aspects of Roundup or similar herbicides, the appropriate choice would be:

**to criticize the use of Roundup and other herbicides.**

If the testimonials provide perspectives that challenge or present alternatives to "Justin's practices," then the correct answer is:

**to present a counterargument against Justin’s practices.**

Lastly, if the testimonial is acknowledging the strength of previously presented statistical evidence without necessarily advocating for a particular practice, the answer would be:

**to offer a concession that the presented statistical evidence is valid.**

Without the specific passage to analyze, I can't definitively select one of the options for you, but consider the context of how the testimonial evidence is functioning in relation to the author's points to determine the correct answer.
