Study: No Link Between Cancer And Weedkiller

A large long-term study on the use of the big-selling weedkiller glyphosate by agricultural workers in the United States has found no firm link between exposure to the pesticide and cancer, scientists said on Thursday. Published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute, the study found there was “no association between glyphosate”, the main ingredient in Monsanto’s popular herbicide RoundUp, and any solid tumors or lymphoid malignancies overall.
