For those of you women who use Roundup to keep weeds down along your
fenceline, here is some information that you need to read.

Better let the men do the herbicide spraying if you are using Roundup <G>.
The herbicide has been linked with pregnancy and hormone problems in women.
In a recent study published in June, French molecular biologists showed
that Roundup is toxic to placenta cells. The same researchers also showed
that Roundup reduced production of the sex hormone estrogen. In both cases,
the combination of ingredients in Roundup was more toxic than glyphosate,
the so-called active ingredient in Roundup.
I'm curious as to whether Roundup could have the same affect on ewes as it
does on female humans.
