Living is Kansas I have never seen anything sprayed on winter wheat to reduce moisture levels. Can you elaborate on this?

Maybe a farmer will chime in.

Yes, she was a good Republican.

I won't argue with your assessment ... however, my point is it takes more than a couple generations for evolution to take place and the changes in our dietary building blocks are coming faster than evolution can keep up with...

Amazing

Or if it's ready, but has a bunch of green weeds mixed in that won't go
through a combine well. They spray the field to kill/dry the weeds.

That's a 5-Holer

But still isn’t in the grain at that point to create poisoning

I hope someone with skin in the farming game comes on to express their expertise.
With most chemicals there are very stringent rules as to the elapsed time of application and harvest. The cost of chemicals is not worth the expense of an already borderline yield. At current costs I bet it takes 2 bushels or more per acre to pay for that and most weeds are getting roundup resistant. I see several farmers going back from no till to dragging equipment. If the wheat field is extremely weedy at harvest time than spraying would be a definite consideration. Most just cut around the bad patches. Bugs and disease probably get more attention.

You don't think it would soak through the wheat lemma?

Yes. But the bigger question is why?

A dog I knew in Kotzebue did something similar. She hated being groomed (4 inch long, silky hair).

When Dan would pick up the brush, Maggie would go into her kennel and pull the door shut behind her.

And yes, I saw her do it.

It never helped, but she kept trying.
