What is Roundup?

About Roundup Class Action Lawsuits 

Roundup is a hidden force that’s behind everything we eat. It is so widely used that the herbicide became the most heavily-used agricultural chemical in the world. Americans alone have used about 1.8 million tons of Roundup since it was first introduced in the 1970s.

Normally this would just be an interesting tidbit about the agricultural industry, but it may have real-world consequences on workers who are exposed to high levels of Roundup on a daily basis.

Known as Roundup Ready crops, they include plants like corn, soybean, and cotton, and they account for over 270 million pounds of crops each year.

The chemical is supposed to only be effective in killing plants, and Monsanto stands behind the idea that glyphosate is harmless to humans, even though evidence through the prevalence of people diagnosed with cancer after regularly using Roundup seems to prove otherwise.

Recently awarded to cancer victims:

Despite its widespread use, the popular weed killer has been called into question as a possible health hazard within the past several years. Lawsuits are being filed, by those affected, and by family members of those affected, claiming Monsanto is falsely advertising that Roundup products are safe to use. The class action suit also claims the company deliberately falsified documents and concealed information that glyphosate is dangerous to humans and environmental health.

Evidence may suggest a link between the popular weed killer and cancer. Those who claim to have suffered from unexpected side effects after being exposed to Roundup are pursuing lawsuits against Monsanto.

Roundup is the brand name for the chemical glyphosate, a weed-killing formula invented in 1974 by the company Monsanto. Glyphosate is sold under other names as well, but Roundup is the most common form. Roundup attacks unwanted plants by inhibiting the way plants absorb nutrients, causing plants to starve to death and wither away.

To make Roundup an even more convenient product, Monsanto has also produced genetically-modified glyphosate-resistant seeds so that farmers can freely spray their fields with Roundup without negatively affecting their crops.
