A newly discovered/released report shows how authorities have known for years that Roundup causes birth defects in laboratory animals.
An interesting note within this link is criticism from a professor that the active ingredient in Roundup also ends up making plants more vulnerable to disease, which, hmmm, let me guess, might force consumers to buy Monsanto's ready-made, genetically modified, "disease-resistant" plants. It is a vicious - and I mean vicious - circle.
News about honey, bees, agriculture and more. Maybe even a few "side trips" about butter.
