I have been asked enough questions about when and how grain corn is harvested. Many of you don't believe how it is done when I have explained it.
A video is worth a thousand words. Enjoy! ;D

What an informative video!! Sadly though some of my most burning questions remain. Namely:
1. Do LiPo's make the corn better?
2. I've heard that corn plants eat balsa and/ or foam? Is this true?
3. What's the longest a RC pilot has survived in a corn field without rescue? Legend has it there are still some guys from the 72Mhz days out there wandering in the corn.
4. I hear that rather than irrigating the corn fields, farmers now mostly count on the tears of RC pilots to water their crops? Fact or fiction?
'YES' to the first 3 of your further inquiries.
'FACT' to your 4th inquiry, however many of our members contribute more than their fair share tears.
Mike,
re: 1. Do LiPo's make the corn better?
Lipos make popcorn!
Bruce, better a corn farm than a pig farm. :D
Interesting video.
Too bad John Deere doesn't make crop duster planes because then the RC toy would be worth every penny.
Love the Hangar 9 Agwagon.

Oh great! It shows the stalk dust being ejected back onto the field to feed the soil for "..NEXT YEAR'S crop.."
Poop! - Possibly more corn next year guys if our farmer doesn't practice crop rotation!!
