Roundup is one of the most benign herbicides you could possibly use in terms of acute health effects. It's basically just a simple salt formulation. In terms of LD50 values for acute toxicity it ranks right up there with table salt and coffee. IIRC, the LD50 is higher for glyphosate than it is for both of those substances that most of us ingest every single day. What are the long term effects of glyphosate? Who knows... but I'd bet they're pretty minimal. Like any other chemical a little common sense goes a long way. Use rubber gloves, apron, chemical suit, respirator, etc and protect yourself... What I can tell you is that I've never had a reaction to Roundup. I have had reactions to 2-4D, MCPA Amine 500, Laddok, Prime Extra and probably a couple of others... Again, nothing on Roundup. That should say something.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
