The aims of a compass survey are to determine the magnetic bearing of a line and to set out accurate directions on the field. Its objectives include establishing a reference direction, determining the magnetic declination, and providing a basis for orienting maps and conducting navigation activities.
Iowa has produced the largest corn crop of any state for each of the past 14 years. In an average year, Iowa produces more corn than most whole countries. For example, Iowa grows three times as much corn as a country like Argentina.

The United States is the world's largest producer of corn.
Yes, corn is produced in Florida. The state is known for its sweet corn production, with planting typically starting in the winter months. Florida's warm climate allows for multiple corn crops throughout the year.
Corn is a staple food for many cultures worldwide, with millions of people consuming it in various forms such as corn kernels, cornmeal, and corn-based products. It is difficult to give an exact number of people who eat corn globally, but it is safe to say that a significant portion of the world's population includes corn in their diets.
The scientific name of corn (also known as maize) is Zea mays.
This cereal grain is classified as follows -
Kingdom: Plantae

The jyutping for 'Corn' in Cantonese is 'suk mai' , but if you can't read jyutping then you pronounce it as 'sook mai'.
Corn snakes belong to the Phylum Chordata, Sub-Phylum Vertebrata, Class Reptilia, Order Squamata.
If you would like me to go further I would. There is a sub-order of Serpentines, then Family Colubridae, Genus Elaphe, and finally, Species E. Guttata. [the E. for elaphe. it is binomial nomenclature, when giving the species or scientific name of an animal, usually the genus is given along with the species, and sometimes the genus is abbreviated.]
you could get dried up sweetcorn for it like they do in gerbil food
It depends on how long it had been soaked, if the beans aren't soggy, they may pop. The air in the pop corn seed needs to be there for it to be popped and properly cooked. :D
Zea mays, commonly called maize or corn, was domesticated in prehistoric times by the native people of the Americas. It was not introduced to Europe until the Spanish, and later the trappers and colonists, learned to use it and sent samples back to the home countries.
It's safe to eat Roundup Ready corn, but if you have allergies to certain foods, you may want to try only small portions at first. There have been some anecdotal indications of allergies.
Better than eating RR corn, try some good sweet corn. It'll taste a whole lot better.
Sodium is usually added to canned corn before it is processed to improve its flavor. Much less sodium, if any, is added to frozen corn. However, it is possible to buy canned corn that is low sodium, or even has no added sodiuml.
In a canned clam chowder, you can't really reduce the saltiness. (You can dilute the chowder by one half by adding an extra can of milk, cream, roux, etc., but this affects flavor.)
The best way to achieve a less-salty clam chowder is to make your own. It's not hard--here's an easy one:
Make a roux with butter and a small amount of flour--a roux is easy to make, consult any cookbook--the roux thickens the soup
Slowly mix in 2 cups of whole milk and 1 cup of dry white wine or a light-colored beer, whisking until the soup is thick again before adding more
Add black pepper, nutmeg, the juice of one lemon, and salt to taste (or omit salt)
Dice three or four red or new potatoes
Simmer the diced potatoes in the chowder for 10 minutes until they are just tender
Add two cans of drained clams (more if you like) and a cup of drained canned corn
Simmer until heated through
Serve immediately, garnish the top with oyster crackers or diced scallions/green onions
I believe to feed 200 they will always go back for more especially with my family. but to satisfy 200 people i believe it is about 10-15 pounds of kernel corn it would go with the 15 though that would be my guess.:)
There is no way to reasonably answer this question without knowing the cropping history of the field, the soil types present, how much and what kind of fertilizer has been added in the last several years, and preferably the results of a comprehensive soil test.
However, there is information available to tell you how much of various nutrients are removed from the soil by the growing crop. If you already have information on the cropping history and other variables, you can make a reasonable plan for fertilization based on these calculations. See the related link below.
US produces the most corn and CHINA produces the 2nd most corn.
The tassels on top of the corn plant are the stamen that produce pollen. The silks ar the ends of each corn cob are the pistils leading to the ovaries. Each one will produce a grain of corn.
