I run a farm, and I am extremely careful around my animals. I was very hesitant to use Roundup or anything else near them. I thoroughly read up on Roundup and other weed killers. Roundup came up safe time and time again. I would not believe Monsanto, or for taht matter, the manufacturer of any product. I did read the govt. studies and many more. It appears safe and the safest of all the choices. I still will not use it where my animals will eat for at least a week, and I still try to use as little as possible. However, of the choices available, Roundup seems the safest and the only thing I will use. On my lawn I have spot sprayed individual weeds. Thats a pain in the butt to do, but it works.
