UM study: Common weed killer ingredient linked to preterm births

The chemical in question is glyphosate which used in herbicides such as Roundup.
“We found that women that had detectable levels of glyphosate and its environmental breakdown product AMPA (aminomethylphosphonic acid) in their urine around the 26th week of pregnancy had an increased risk for preterm births,” said Monica Silver, lead author of the study published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives.
If glyphosate was found, the women ran a 35% increased chance of a preterm birth. 
“And women who had exposures to the breakdown product, AMPA, had an even higher 67% increased risk of preterm birth," Silver said.

U-M study: Exposure to common herbicides linked to premature births


U-M study: Exposure to common herbicides linked to premature births
Chemicals found in widely used herbicides like Roundup may cause preterm births
Tags: 
A new study from the University of Michigan has found a connection between exposure to widely used herbicides and premature births.
The University of Michigan conducted a nested case-control study among a cohort of pregnant women in northern Puerto Rico that examined the connection between exposure to a chemical found in herbicides and preterm births as part of ongoing research of contamination threats. The study, published Wednesday, found that women in the later months of their pregnancy had an increased risk for premature birth if exposed to the chemical glyphosate, which is found in weed killer Roundup and other herbicides.

From the Tramlines: moisture needed on all fronts


Con Barry
If rain doesn’t arrive by the weekend, crops will come under pressure, says Con.
While some moisture was forecast at the time of writing this, it remains to be seen if it will be enough to alleviate the dry conditions in north Kerry.
With that said, conditions have been excellent for getting work done this spring, says Con, and land is in great shape.
Con will finish planting the last of his maize this week.
He will finish planting his 72ac of maize this week. Spring cereal sowing was completed over two weeks ago.
His Gangway spring barley crops were sown at a rate of 180kg/ha, along with 336kg/ha of 10:10:20.

Scouting Timothy Fields for Timothy Mite


Timothy mite is a cool-season pest that has caused headaches for many timothy growers, particularly in southeastern Pennsylvania, where it seems to have spread to the majority of fields, reducing growth and crop quality.
Extension entomologist John Tooker expects that with early-season warmth this year, populations will be active earlier than normal.
To determine whether this pest species is active in your timothy fields, scout fields for signs of damage and the mites’ presence.
Mite feeding causes leaf blades to roll up, presumably to provide the mites with better protection and microclimate. Look for leaf blades that are rolled up tightly, rather than leaf blades that are flat and normally expanded.
