If Roundup was sprayed on the Bermuda Grass it would have killed it. I

Bermuda Grass touching only the weeds. Round up only works when it touches
green. It would not even enter the dormant Bermuda Grass. In no way am I
I just finished reading the e-mail about Roundup and the use of it in hay
crops. Well folks if you feed your sheep grain (corn, oats,etc.) chances are
