Acid cured hay is not the same thing as hay sprayed with herbicides. I don't know much about the acid curing. Will have to look that up. Thanks!

Well, nobody here, but I almost always get into arguments with people who claim that not only are herbicides perfectly safe, but that they aren't even detectable in the finished product...aggieterpkatie said:Who was trying to argue with you about it?mama24 said:Please don't try to argue with me that it's perfectly safe,
Oh ok, I thought you mistook my post as an argument.mama24 said:Well, nobody here, but I almost always get into arguments with people who claim that not only are herbicides perfectly safe, but that they aren't even detectable in the finished product...aggieterpkatie said:Who was trying to argue with you about it?mama24 said:Please don't try to argue with me that it's perfectly safe,
Yikes really? I wouldn't buy any that's been sprayed for weeds either. Roundup is dangerous and IMO the killer of bees too :/ I certainly wouldn't touch it either. There must be someone local to you who can sell you real hay. Have you tried craigslist or even posting a wanted ad there?mama24 said:Most of the hay I see for sale around here says it's been sprayed for weeds. Don't really want that going into my goats, and then into their milk and into my kids. Please don't try to argue with me that it's perfectly safe, that's all propaganda by the advertising side of the producers of these chemicals, not from the people who actually work in the lab. I am a chemist, I worked in the herbicides group at one of the top 3 agrochemical companies for a while. I know how toxic this stuff is. It's not nearly as benign as the marketing people would like everyone to believe.
