Sweet Corn Crop Doubles in 10 Years On Virginia Farms
Virginia agricultural economist J Maxton reports sweet corn acreage rose nine percent annually from 1929 to 1944 and has doubled in importance over the past decade. He advises harvest in the milk stage, cooling for shipment, uniform ear length, and packing by trimming shanks under two inches. Virginia corn sold cheaper than Texas and North Carolina June 22 to July 8, but peaked July 9 to July 18. New Jersey later offered a premium.
