<<Agent Orange! Isn't that a defoliant? >>

Yep, that's the reason it's used. Bean leaves and weeds will clog a combine. It's rarely used now as the new hybrids tend to drop their leaves early and the new herbicides keep the fields clean. The beans grown around here aren't the type used for cooking, more for oil and animal feed.
