This situation has interesting second-order effects as well. Most "custom harvesters" require farmers to schedule their combine/truck well ahead of time, giving them little leeway in which specific dates they can harvest their crop. So instead of for instance letting the corn dry out in the sun, they'll spray an assload of glyphosate on it to cause it to dessicate to ensure it'll be at the right moisture level right when their custom harvester shows up.
