Did They Change the Round up Formula?

Did Roundup change formula?

Why is Roundup still on the market?

People used glyphosate as a herbicide in 1974 when Monsanto used it to create Roundup. However, farmers did not widely use Roundup until as recently as 1996. This was because Monsanto was also selling genetically modified seeds to farmers. As a result, the seeds were resistant to the effects of Roundup as a herbicide.
