I'm not sure I am reading your question correctly but if your referring to the few rows left standing after the bulk of the field has been harvested it is to have a sampling of the field to show crop damage caused by deer etc.
Answer #2, from Iowa Yes, vague question. Some corn is actually cut off a few inches above the ground to make what is called "silage" to feed cattle. The entire plant is used. Nothing is left except short stubble in the field. This is done earlier than picking, when the corn is still green. However, when corn is picked, only the ears are removed and the bent over stocks are left in the field. If a farmer uses part of a field for silage, it will be cut, leaving the other part to mature and be picked at a later date.
Erosion.
Many farmers throughout agricultural areas of the US follow this practice.
No-till or reduced-till farming, fallowing, etc.

Conservation tillage. This practice helps to protect the soil from erosion by keeping plant residue on the field surface, which can reduce runoff and improve soil health.
A group of farmers leave their homes to search for more fertile lands elsewhere.
Bing was baptized a Roman Catholic, and maintained a devout standing within that church his entire life. Whether that makes him a "Christian" I'll leave up to someone else.
Yes, most do.
Farmers leave a strip of land around the edge of their field with no chemical spray to act as a buffer zone. This helps prevent chemical runoff into neighboring water sources and minimizes negative impacts on biodiversity by providing habitat for beneficial insects and wildlife.
