corn crop

Right now there should be a healthy corn crop on a farmers field. Instead many farmers did not plant their crop. These former corn fields lie full of weeds, abandoned and empty, as if forgotten by time. What we should know is that this is a consequence of our severe economic crisis. Banks are unwilling to lend money to farmers to buy seed and fertilizer, and our lands languish.


Here is a cornless corn field. Nothing has been planted as of June - now too late to plant.
