Is it true that farmers grow corn by planting cow corn on the out side and sweet corn on the inside of the field so that people don't take the sweet corn?
Actually no.. quite on the contrary if any. If the farmer grows both cow corn and sweet corn, the way we did it was the sweet corn on the outside 3 or 4 or however many rows, and the cow corn on the inside. It made it easier to pick, and you didn't ruin any cow corn when you tried to harvest it, because the outside was sweet corn which had already been picked.
Additional Info.While it is very occasionally done, as both the answer above and one of the discussion points mention, it is only done in either way (outside or inside the field) on a very small portion of the field -- for the farm family's convenience. If you want high quality sweet corn, it must be planted in a location isolated from field (cow) corn, or any other type of corn, because the other corn's pollen will make the sweet corn kernels go "starchy". The best sweet corn (and what you buy in the can or frozen) is grown in a field all by itself for this reason.

How does gps help with planting crops?
A GPS helps with planting crops because you can follow exact coodrinates. A good GPS system will allow you to be accurate within 5 feet, and a great one within 5 inches. This allows you to plant, accurately, to maximum amount of crops without planting outside the specified area. A GPS also allows for less overlapping on passes through a field which saves a lot of diesel fuel and time for farmers.
Why did farmers use the three field system?
Farmers used the three-field system to improve agricultural productivity by rotating crops each year. This rotation helped replenish the soil with nutrients, reduced the risk of depleting the soil, and increased overall crop yields. By dividing fields into three sections for planting different crops, farmers were able to maximize efficiency and sustainability in their farming practices.
What method of agriculture did Europeans use?

Why do farmers level the field before sowing seeds?
Farmers level the field before sowing seeds to ensure uniform distribution of water and nutrients, promote even growth of crops, and enable efficient mechanized farming practices such as planting and harvesting. Leveling also helps prevent waterlogging in low-lying areas and runoff in sloping fields.
What could cause rich soil to lose their nutrients?
ANSWER: Over use such as planting the same type of plant in the same plot of land year after year. That is why farmers rotate the crops they plant in a field from one year to the next.

Why do people plant field corn early?
Good question. I think it is mainly to attempt to get a higher yield or an earlier harvest, in spite of the fact that numerous studies have shown that this is, in fact, quite rare. In the US, farmers are also somewhat susceptible to a certain degree of peer pressure. As soon as one farmer in a neighborhood starts, then all his neighbors start getting "itchy" to follow suit. Then their neighbors start, then theirs, etc., until soon everyone in a given area is planting. This is something of a historical leftover from when the planting operation took four to six weeks to complete due to the use of horses and/or small tractors and equipment. US corn farmers are now generally able to complete their planting in about one week per farm, while field conditions allow.
