I live in a very rural area, and have never seen winter wheat sprayed with Roundup to speed up harvest time.

I have seen it sprayed in the early spring, but never when kernels are on the plant.

Given that a majority of wheat is winter wheat harvested in the heat of summer, I just can’t see how spraying it with Roundup speeds up anything.

Soybeans? That gets blasted with Roundup. Frequently.
