Only 1% of the corn grown can be eaten. The rest is No. 2 yellow field corn, which is indigestible to humans and used in animal feed, food supplements and ethanol

Technically all whole corn is indigestible.

Also stop paying farmers for not planting fields.

If they have a field, it needs to be planted.

And the whole corn thing went right over a few heads.

You can plant in any other grain as opposed to corn.
If corn is t being used in gas, not as much is needed.

I thought pretty much all corn meal, grits etc was made from field corn?

That 1% is as fresh kernels, no?

Corn can be ground into a meal. Indians were doing it for ages.
