Its use isn't exclusively reserved for the herbicide tolerant GMO crops, but has over the past three and a half decades been incrementally employed as a pre-harvest desiccant on a variety of conventional crops starting with wheat in the late 1970s. The practice is so widespread now that it is nearly impossible to guarantee that the grains, beans, or potatoes one consumes are glyphosate free. Non GMO labeling, as a consequence, has been rendered somewhat meaningless these days as one of the primary concerns over GMO products is the wish to avoid exposure to the herbicides for the the crops have been made genetically tolerant. <br />Glyphosate acts upon plants by translocating through the entire plant system, it is therefore present in all tissues, including the seeds which humans ultimately consume.
