Subject: Re: just for kicks, had hog manure tested for glyphosate


Princeton, MN
That concentration is 210 ppb (parts per Billion). I would be skeptical that there is an economical test that will have accuracy to that level. It would be interesting to test other things not likely to have glyphosate to see what concentration the test comes up with.

If there truly is glyphosate in the feed, it would probably go through the hog relatively unscathed since it only affects plant pathways. There may not be an enzyme in the hog digestive system that can break down the glyphosate.
