Three Crops of Corn in a Year in Philippine Isles
Excessive rains prevent oats from growing in the Philippines and rust harms it. Corn thrives, allowing Filipino farmers to harvest three crops annually from one plot. To preserve it, corn must stay in the husk and be stored to avoid weevils. Bundled ears are hung to dry, then husked and shelled as needed. Corn mills are being set up in the Visayan islands where locals favor cornmeal over rice as a staple.
