| | Corn |
 | | Corn is used for a number of purposes, from human food (corn flakes, corn meal) to sweeteners (high fructose corn syrup). | | | Sweet corn, popcorn and flour corn are used for human food. | | | Corn kernels are used to make fructose, a liquid sugar used to sweeten soda pop and bakery goods. |

| | Year-round, Corn Belt grazing |
| | While the meat is largely made from grain, brood cows and 60 replacement heifers graze virtually all of their rations. | | | When the cows are turned in after the corn comes off (normally in October) there is often a ton of dry matter awaiting them. | | | Cliff says he also may investigate whether there is a market for "grass-fed" beef in the St. Louis area. |
