Roundup kills most green plants. Has little effect on anything else, tho that is debated by some. It won't preven new seeds from sprouting, only works on green plant material. The roundup soaks into the green leaf areas, gets moved down into the root, and kills the plant from the root up. This is what makes it more effecting than many other herbicides. Some weeds that have very large roots, or do not flow sap down into the roots in early summer are much harder to kill with roundup, take several applications over a year or three to do a good job.
The corn, beans, beets that it doesn't kill were genetically modified so that they process out the roundup and it doesn't affect these crop plants. Or to say, they now digest the roundup without harming themselves.
By spraying billions and billions and billions of weeds over the past decades with roundup, a few species of weeds have found natural occurring ways to also digest the roundup,without harm to the weed. Several versions of pigweed/ Palmer/ tall water hemp are some of the best at selecting themselves to adjust to the roundup, and have become problem weeds.
But, it will kill your strawberries.
What weeds are you trying to kill? It is very easy to kill off grasses in strawberries, a version of Select will do a good job. Killing broadleaf weeds or trees is much more difficult.
More tha. You wanted to know, but when this topic comes up there tend to be a lot of inaccurate thought on herbicides.......

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
