Quite a few crop plants are actually sterile. Cavendish Bananas for example (the kind you get to buy everywhere). They don't have seeds. Sweet oranges are another example.

Good point, I was mainly thinking about grain crops. Wasn't fully aware that the term crops also includes all the other growable fruit.
