Why is corn raised in rows and how is this done on farms in Nebraska?

Corn is raised in rows in the Midwestern states of the US, including Nebraska, just because that's the easiest and fastest way to plant the seeds in the most efficient plant populations. Corn is usually the most productive when grown at populations of around 30,000 plants per acre and a machine called a corn planter is the most effective way to do this. The machine, which is normally pulled by a tractor, has a number of planter units spaced a certain distance from each other, each of which opens the soil a little, drops a seed into the furrow, and then closes it up again, all while traveling through the field as fast as ten miles per hour.
