Okie dokie. No more Roundup in California’s ag areas. I hope y’all like weeds with your produce.

Caused or may have contributed. I just put down about 40 gallons from round up pro concentrate. I did NOT taste test it prior to spraying. Monsanto did not force me to use it.

“I hope y’all like weeds with your produce.”

Pulling weeds by hand is something even Gender Studies majors can do. At least the ones who are not morbidly obese.

So, more weeds means less produce. Less produce means higher prices. Higher prices mean people eat fewer vegetables. Eating fewer vegetables means more cancer. I wonder which cause will have a greater effect.

Roundup isn’t used on crops or produce.
Its a general defoliant used to control weeds in areas where you don’t want growth.
I used to use it in green houses to keep weeds from growing into green house floor.
