Abstract
Hatchability and time to hatch of chicken eggs were found to be unaffected by application of glyphosate herbicide at three different concentrations and at four different embryo ages. We concluded that the use of the chemical as a weed control agent in zero tillage farming should not negatively affect the hatchability of the eggs of upland nesting birds.Keywords
