Popis: | Hybrid field corn, open-pollinated flint, popcorn, and sweet corn are grown on every continent, except Antarctica. Six nations (USA, China, Brazil, Mexico, France, and Argentina) produce 75% of the worlds corn supply. The USA alone accounts for 39% of the total with the majority of production occurring in the Corn Belt stretching from Nebraska to Ohio. Most corn is grown for grain and used for animal feed and human food. In 2004, 27.6 million bushels of grain was produced worldwide. |
