Monsanto has been suggesting this for almost 20 years and afaik it has been more or less general practice for all this time at least in Ireland. More in wet years than in moderate dry years. When a grain farmer has a crop ready and it will not stop raining he could suffer a serious loss because the ripe crop will keep talking in moisture and many seeds will germinate on the plant. Kill the plant before that happens with roundup and water uptake will stop. One reason why we eat little bread or anything else with flour.
