The Greatest Cornfield of Jackson County Illinois
Jackson county Illinois claims the world’s largest cornfield in the American Bottom near Ava. The 6000 acre expanse, once the lake Big Lake, was drained beginning in 1890 by a steam dredge and a drainage district led by Whitney Gilbreath. Ten-mile ditch to the Mississippi now feeds a maze of tenant plots with aisles for visitors. The field yields up to 16 foot tall corn and about 75 bushels per acre, totaling around 450000 bushels last year, with soil that stays moist in dry weather.
