I don't know if there is any research which has been done on this. I do know that worldwide, male fertility is declining rapidly, coincidentally since the introduction of widespread pesticides in the 1950's. At the same time male fertility started its rapid decline, cancers increased. You can draw your own conclusions, Del, but I would argue that pesticides could not logically be beneficial to humans in the big picture.
