Corn farming involves the cultivation of Zea mays, commonly known as corn or maize. Farmers prepare the soil, plant seeds, and manage the crop through watering, fertilizing, and pest control. Corn is a versatile crop used for food, animal feed, and industrial products. Harvesting typically occurs in late summer to early fall when the kernels are mature. After harvesting, the corn can be processed in various ways, including drying and milling. Corn farming plays a significant role in agriculture, contributing to the economy and food supply in many countries around the world.
