Part 3/8:
Harvesting corn is a meticulous endeavor requiring precise timing to capture the right sweetness and tenderness of the kernels. Typically occurring between mid-August and mid-October, the harvest process is aimed at completing the entire operation—from harvesting to canning—in just 12 hours to preserve freshness.
Specialized harvesters equipped with sharp blades and automated systems streamline this harvesting process. These machines can efficiently collect corn while repurposing byproducts as livestock feed or organic fertilizer, reinforcing sustainable agricultural practices.
