Not exactly. The reason we grow so much corn is also why America (and France) are accused of undermining world trade. Government subsidies for corn are some of the world's largest. Its lower price is also another reason why corn syrup - pure sugar - is replacing nutritious ingredients in American foods. For example, Apple Juice was once from apples. Now corn syrup is a major ingredient - pure sugar.

Ask not why we are eating too much. Ask why there is now so much sugar in American diets.

And ask why corn could be better produced in other nations where people need the jobs - if American government subsidies did not subvert world corn prices.

Where is Canada. I though Canada exported more wheat then Argentina?

According to the USDA at this site the lineup for exports is;
#2 United States 28,500 thousand metric tons
#3 Australia 15,000 thousand metric tons
#4 Canada 14,500 thousand metric tons
#6 Argentina 9,000 thousand metric tons
#7 Kazakhstan 6,500 thousand metric tons
#8 Russia 3,500 thousand metric tons
#9 India 2,000 thousand metric tons
#10 Turkey 800 thousand metric tons
#11 Ukraine 100 thousand metric tons
But they don't say who #1 is......very strange :eyebrow:

The total area (hectares) growing wheat is;
#1 India 24,860,000
#2 China 22,000,000
#3 United States 21,470,000
#5 Australia 13,020,000
#6 Kazakhstan 11,300,000
#7 Canada 10,470,000
#8 Turkey 8,600,000
#9 Pakistan 8,090,000
#10 Iran 6,500,000
#11 Argentina 5,700,000

Do you know that the steepness of the slope has a specific maximum value? The name of that value is called The Angle of Repose (The maximum slope or angle at which loose, cohesionless material remains stable. Dictionary of Geological Terms, 3rd Edition, American Geological Institute). For wheat the value is about 25 degrees.

Carry on.

Come on down to the Tampa Brewery sometime! I'll buy you a pint and tell you the stories of what we do to the sacks of barley and hops that are stored in stacks that we use as comfortable seats while waiting our turn to play darts.

What you do to the sacks of barley and hops---does it rhyme with darts? :)

Tampa Brewery has unique, aromatic blends. Not much to my taste, though. I prefer the mixed drinks, there. :)

That redefines the term: beer fart.

Is this just down the road from Big Rock Candy Mountain?
