Roundup (herbicide)
Roundup is a widely used herbicide containing glyphosate, designed to kill weeds and unwanted plants. It works by blocking an enzyme that plants need to grow, effectively stopping their development and causing them to die. It is commonly applied to agricultural fields, gardens, and landscaping to clear large areas of weeds efficiently. While effective, Roundup is subject to health and environmental debates, emphasizing the importance of proper use and adherence to safety guidelines to minimize risks to people and non-target plants.
