Spraying wheat with RoundUp prior to harvest? Is this true?

7. Important to note about corn:

Corn on the cob: While 90 percent of corn grown in the United States is genetically modified, most of that crop is used for animal feed or ethanol and much of the rest ends up in processed foods.
Sweet corn—the stuff that you steam or grill on the barbecue and eat on the cob—was GMO-free until last year when Monsanto rolled out its first GE harvest of sweet corn.
While consumers successfully petitioned Whole Foods and Trader Joe's to not carry the variety, Walmart has begun stocking the shelves with it without any label.

GMO is not necessarily a dirty word.
genetically modified is also known as hybrid, and we have been planting and growing "hybrid" plants for decades, esp. tomatoes, corn, potatoes,
and roses, which have been bred to be resistant to major disease problems.
My issue is GMO plants that have been bred to not die when tons of pesticides and Round Up are applied.
We get nutrients from plants which get them from the soil, and we have managed to kill a lot of good stuff in the soil by over use of chemicals to grow our food in. So the plant uptakes the chemicals and we eat that.
Theoretically, "organic" means plants have grown in "live" organic soil, not dead chemical soil.
