Atrazine one of the most widely used herbicides in US to prevent pre- and postemergence broadleaf weeds in crops such as maize (corn) and sugarcane and on turf, such as golf courses and residential lawns. It used to be the most commonly detected pesticide contaminating drinking water and studies suggest it is an endocrine disruptor, an agent that can alter the natural hormonal system. The implications for children’s health are related to effects during pregnancy and during sexual development.
