Indian Corn

That's all I've ever known these ears as. That is until I started did an internet search to learn more about these colorful ears of corn.
Growing up in the Midwest these colorful ears adorned many of houses that I hung out in. Little did I know what a staple this was and how hardy this plant is, especially when it's compared to the white and yellow corn that most of us grew up eating.

"Researchers found a strong link btw #corn #plantations & #fire #hotspots.. #Toxic haze has become increasingly intense in past years. Maize plantations now stretch across borders into #Myanmar, #Laos & #Cambodia to serve #agroindustry. Yet tis fact rarely enters official narrative. Te #government looks away when corn expands into forest or when sugar cane growers set fire during harvest.. While big players r left untouched, te pressure falls on small people.. #CleanAir #Bill must be passed"
Corn and Serrano Pudding

Unlike bready corn pudding you might be used to, this lighter version, studded with a generous amount of sweet corn, is similar to a custard.

What's more efficient: Growing corn for energy or solar?

"In fact, it would require about 31 hectares of corn ethanol to produce the same amount of energy generated by one hectare of land covered in solar panels."

New study compares growing corn for energy to solar production. It’s no contest.

Ah, the eternal question: 🌽 versus ☀️! Who would've thought #farming #corn is less efficient than capturing #sunlight directly? Next study: Is water wet? 🤷‍♂️
