I don't buy that. Atrazine has been in use on my farm for close to 50 years. It still works like it should because it is not abused.
Do you have cable tv or Sirius XM? Listen to the Hefty Bros. They make a living from making sure that famers are good stewards of chemicals and technology. They constantly talk about ways to keep that from happening, and new chemical technology that keeps round-up from being abused. What all farmers need to understand is that Round-up is just a tool in the toolbox. There are plenty of other tools in the toolbox to use to control weeds, and all farmers need to listen. I do. Every respectful, learned, gentleman farmer that I know also respects that. There are some farmers out there who are blatant about abusing it, and that is a serious faux pas in my book. Why not walk into a church and break wind? It's just as bad and disrespectful to not do all you can to prevent the abuse.
It's my opinion, but, I believe everyone should read it, and try to understand it, before blindly dismissing it. Read some stuff on the AgPHD website. Watch some videos. It can keep that from happening. As a responsible farmer, it is our civic duty.

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
