Yes No Indiana farmers nearly finished planting corn crop By Rick Callahan Associated Press Writer May 19, 2004 2:36 PM After two soggy springs, a dry April boosted Indiana's corn-planting to a near-record pace, filling the state's countryside with tiny corn plants earlier than normal. In contrast to last year, when just 60 percent of corn was planted by mid-May, 93 percent of the crop is now in the ground, putting it just behind 2001's record pace, Bud Bever, a Purdue University agricultural statistician, said Wednesday. "With the early planting, a lot of the corn emerged earlier than normal and many of those stands look really good. So it looks like a promising year," he said. Still, the picture isn't great for everyone. Bever said wet conditions continue to trouble south-central and southeastern Indiana farmers, where three straight wet springs have caused frustrating planting delays. The southeastern portion of the state accounts for about 8 percent of Indiana's corn production, with the north and central counties dominating that crop, he said.

86. Storage Alternatives For The 1999 Corn Crop corn storage will likely be at a premium this fall. Many producers and commercial elevators still have 1998 (and perhaps 1997) crop in storage and low http://www.uwex.edu/ces/crops/cornstor99.htm

Alternatives for Storing High Moisture Corn Mike Rankin Crops and Soils Agent - Fond du Lac County University of Wisconsin - Extension Corn storage will likely be at a premium this fall. Many producers and commercial elevators still have 1998 (and perhaps 1997) crop in storage and low commodity prices are not too appealing for selling on a harvest market. With this in mind, there may be a need to look at non-conventional methods for storing and preserving high moisture or dry grain. Here's a rundown on some of these alternative storage options: Silage Bags for High Moisture Corn: Silage bags were used extensively this past summer for haylage and corn silage. They can also be utilized for high moisture corn if proper management is followed. Strategies are similar for those of oxygen-limiting silos although there are some differences. The moisture range for whole kernel grain going into silage bags is 25 to 35 percent. Ideally, aim for 28 to 32 percent. Rolled or cracked corn can also be successfully stored in silage bags. At higher moisture ranges (over 30 percent), the use of a high quality inoculant to produce a faster and more complete fermentation is worth the investment. Because grain does not seal as well as silage, place bags in a location where they are not likely to be damaged. Placing bags on a gravel bed in an area that is weed-free can minimize rodent damage. Where placed in a grassy area, spray a non-selective herbicide like Roundup around the base of bags. This will help make a less attractive area for rodents. Inspect bags frequently for tears and holes. If found, repair the damage immediately.

92. The Story Of Corn Intro maturing dent corn. As time went on, the new settlers to America began to depend on corn as one of the most important farm crops. http://www.campsilos.org/mod3/index.shtml

When Columbus "discovered" America, there was no corn on board the Nina, Pinta or Santa Maria. Before 1492, no one living in Europe ate corn cakes, corn bread or corn pudding. They didn't know corn existed. Up to this time, corn grew only in the Americas. Scientists believe corn was originally cultivated by Indians in the highlands of Mexico thousands of years ago. The Indians discovered that corn was good to eat and very nutritious. As Indian groups migrated north they brought corn with them. American Indians were growing corn in many parts of North America long before the first arrival of European explorers and traders. Christopher Columbus and the explorers that followed him took corn back to Europe and introduced it to the world. Native American Indians taught European colonists to grow many varieties of the corn including yellow, red, blue, pink, and black kernels, often banded, spotted, or striped. In the 1600s, early English settlers found the Indians of present-day northeastern United States growing a hard

For Students: Introduction Quick Facts History Detective Scavenger Hunt Newsroom Mystery Photo Amazing Mazes Did you know corn is America's number one field crop? Corn leads all other crops in value and volume of production. Here's some more interesting facts about corn.... Corn Math An ear of corn averages 800 kernels in 16 rows. A pound of corn consists of approximately 1,300 kernels. 100 bushels of corn produces approximately 7,280,000 kernels. Each year, a single U.S. farmer provides food and fiber for 129 people - 97 in the U.S. and 32 overseas. In the U.S., corn production measures more than 2 times that of any other crop. Over 55% of Iowa's corn goes to foreign markets. The rest is used in other parts of the United States. Corn Products Your bacon and egg breakfast, glass of milk at lunch, or hamburger for supper were all produced with U.S. corn. Corn is a major component in many food items like cereals, peanut butter, snack foods and soft drinks. U.S. researchers have led the way in finding many uses for corn - like in vitamins and amino acids.

94. What Drought Did To Crop Yields In The 1930s how their corn was fine one day and dried out the next. She and her husband used their anticipated crop yields to buy a tractor. When the crops failed, they http://www.livinghistoryfarm.org/farminginthe30s/water_03.html

No Water, No Crops But the drought years of the 1930s forced individual farmers and lawmakers at all levels of government to face fundamental questions. What kind of agriculture can be practiced in a semi-arid environment? And how can we restore land that farming practices had damaged and avoid damaging the land in the future? The statistics tell the story. Normally, the state of Nebraska averages around 20 inches of rainfall a year. In 1930, Nebraska got 22 inches of rain, and the state's corn crop averaged 25 bushels per acre. In 1934, Nebraska saw the driest year on record with only 14.5 inches of rainfall. The state's corn crop dropped even more to only 6.2 bushels per acre. In other words, between 1930 and 1934 rainfall dropped 27.5 percent, and as a result corn crop yields dropped over 75 percent. Those living on the Great Plains saw the effects of the drought first hand. LeRoy Hankel can tell you how his crops did each year during the Depression , even after all these years. These dramatic effects caused the leaders of agricultural planning in the U.S. to consider fundamental changes in farming on the plains. The heads of all of the New Deal agricultural and relief agencies issued a "Report of the Great Plains Drought Area Committee" in August 1936. In the report, they said that the dust bowl was caused not just by the dry weather but also by unwise farming practices. Earlier settlers plowed under the natural tall grasses that covered the plains and planted crops they had planted in the wetter East. When the drought came, the crops failed, the ground was uncovered and the incessant winds produced the dust storms.

95. Factsheet: Genetically Modified Crops In The United States planted globally. GM food crops grown by US farmers include corn, cotton, soybeans, canola, squash, and papaya. Other major producers http://pewagbiotech.org/resources/factsheets/crops/

August, 2003 Genetically Modified Crops in the United States Genetically modified food and agricultural biotechnology have generated considerable interest and controversy in the United States and around the world. Some tout the technology's benefits while others raise questions about environmental and food safety issues. This paper is one of a series that the Pew Initiative on Food and Biotechnology has developed to address common questions that are frequently asked about genetically modified food and agricultural biotechnology. This factsheet is an update to a similar one published in August 2001 on Genetically Modified Crops in the United States in 2000. Crop varieties developed by genetic engineering were first introduced for commercial production in 1996. Today, these crops are planted on more than 145 million acres worldwide. U.S. farmers are by far the largest producers of genetically modified (GM) crops. This fact sheet summarizes the extent to which GM crops have been adopted in the United States compared to other countries. It also shows which GM crops U.S. farmers grow and which states plant most GM varieties. The United States is the World Leader in Production of Biotechnology Crops The United States accounts for over two-thirds of all biotechnology crops planted globally. GM food crops grown by U.S. farmers include corn, cotton, soybeans, canola, squash, and papaya. Other major producers of GM crops are Argentina, which plants primarily biotech soybeans; Canada, whose principal biotech crop is canola; and China, whose doubling of its acreage of Bt cotton increased its share of GM crops by one percent of the worldwide total in 2002 as compared to the previous year.

The Big Players: soybeans, corn, canola, cotton The Little Guys: potato, squash/zucchini, papaya, tomato, sugarbeets, rice, flax, radicchio All other plants and animals GE bacteria, fungi, and yeast in food production Am I eating genetically engineered foods? The simple answer is yes . Recent estimates suggest that more than 60% of food products on US shelves may contain at least a small quantity of some crop that has been genetically engineered. But which foods? As it turns out, because products made from GE plants are not required to be labeled in the US, that's a difficult question to answer. But the information that follows should give readers a rough estimate of the prevalence of specific GE plants in the foods we eat.
