Hate to say I've ever robbed a farmer's corn field, but if you pick field corn ears when they are tiny like that - 2" to 3" - they are delicious eaten just as fresh as you pick them. Sweet, tender little crunchy morsels.

Sounds like a stock market ploy to me.... this stuff happens SOMEWHERE, EVERY year... its normal. But folks will try to make a buck over panic every last time.

Corn around here looks about like the OP's picture. It is disturbing to see how little is planted and growing. And how much has been drowned out that did get planted.

This “food shortage” probably means that the USA will only grow enough to feed half the world this year. It’ll also mean only half as much rots and pet food will have to contain meat instead of corn. 😁

Hundreds of varieties and most of it is round up ready. Very few farmers plant ONE variety unless it was a really good one from the previous year. The weather is the real variable this year.

Corn around where I hunt in Louisiana is taller than me and will probably be harvested and gone before I see it again. I've been told it's the corn they use for ethanol.
. They may sell it for ethanol, but they plant it for production. The same corn varieties sold for animal or human food is what they use for ethanol, and vise versa, I've been told by several corn growers. They plant whatever they think will give them the best production, and often several varieties to cover different possible conditions, and don't give a hang who buys it for what, except the best price. Corn growers love ethanol - it drives the price of all corn up.

Most people are to fat anyhow. It might do them some good to drop a few pounds.
I like to do my hunting BEFORE I pull the trigger!

If only we could predict better when the flooding is going to be bad. Then they could plant rice! Geno The problem is that it was too wet to get into the fields to work. Rice, corn, beans, all has to be planted. All of the farmers around here are 6 to 8 weeks behind. A lot of ground won't be planted this year. A lot of plans have been changed as to what they wanted to plant. Some will make money and some will go broke. That short corn in the original post will really take off after the first application of fertilizer and water. Its still late but even by now it will be taller.
