Generally, no. Roundups are a way of simply transporting a herd of cattle from pasture to the farm. However, some minor injuries could occur such as scrapes from bushes.

Roundup, as in the herbicide, used to kill weeds and grass is not in itself harmful (but cattle should not have access to it) but it is what the roundup does to the dying plant that may harm cattle as in the plant is dying so it produces more sugars which makes it more palatable to stock which is not good if it is a plant toxic to cattle.
