I am viewing the video. Very interesting herbicide causing reproductive organ problems. He briefly mentioned nerve gas. As a veteran the "nerve gas" interests me for obvious reasons. So am I remembering correctly from my active duty years that atrazine can be weaponized for chemical/ biological warfare? Of course, his direction of discussion is a concern to me because it affects a community I was bred from and raised in.

Yes it could be weaponized as a defoliant. Gets into the roots and kills the whole plant, not just the leaves.

Farmers still use a different form of it here, then they have to make a toxic cocktail to kill weeds when they become resistant to it.
