WATCH: New Film Exposes 'Monstrous' Child Deformities Caused by Agrochemicals in Argentina
The film begins with the crew traveling from North Argentina in the Province of Misiones to the Brazilian frontier, an agricultural region that was one of the nation's first to begin growing genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in the mid-'90s.
Featured in the film is Ricardo Rivero, regional head of the local electricity company. He learned that the reason families cannot pay their bills is because often they are taking care of a sick or handicapped child, and receive no assistance from the Argentinian government.
The film shows them visiting the humble home of a tobacco farmer where they meet Lucas Texeira, a 5-year-old boy with an incurable genetic skin disease. The family believes it was caused by the mother's exposure to Monsanto's Roundup weedkiller early on in her pregnancy. No one told her it was toxic, she says.
The genetic mutation that caused her son's condition left him with no pores in his skin, which means he doesn't perspire. The heat from his body stays inside, causing him severe and painful itching that leads to frequent crying spells. Mr. Texeira expresses his sadness over Lucas' condition, as well as his fears that he could have another child in the future with a similar deformity.

Seems like a pretty darn good source to me.
Sorry that you do not seem to think so! 
This was the minimum distance required between Glyphosate crop dusting, and any residential areas.
Last year, after meeting with Monsatan lobbyists, Environment Minister Sergio Bergman decreed - with no congressional review - that the "reasonably safe" distance would henceforth be 100 meters (a standard city block).
