In the United States alone, millions of acres are devoted to corn production every year.
Much of this production supports:
Food manufacturing
Livestock agriculture
Renewable fuel production
International exports
This explains why travelers often see endless fields stretching for miles across agricultural regions.
Those fields are helping supply industries far beyond the local community.
Why Farmers Prefer Field Corn
Field corn offers several advantages for large-scale farming.
These include:
High Yield Potential
Field corn produces large harvests per acre.
Storage Stability
The dry kernels can be stored for extended periods.
Versatility
Few crops can be transformed into as many products.
