Nowadays many plants, including barley and soybeans, are sprayed with round-up two weeks before harvest so they will dry in the field. Of course the round-up is not rinsed off, because that would defeat the purpose. It is unknown what effect consuming that much round-up has on people, but the effects we know about are not good.
