More corn is produced than any other grain crop, and for good reason. It is a staple food for many people and a major component of livestock feed. Corn is used as a high-fructose sweetener in many processed foods, and it’s the main ingredient in corn oil, corn starch, and corn syrup.

As per 2018 Statics, the biggest producers are USA with about 367 million tons, china with 258 million tons, brazil with 94 million tons and Argentina with 46 million tons.
