Everwilde Farms - 1 Lb Reids Yellow Dent Open Pollinated Corn Seeds - Gold Vault

Dent corn, or field corn, is characterized by a lower sugar and higher starch content than sweet corn. So named because of the distinctive dents in the kernels, dent corn has many uses; the most common being the making of products such as corn starch, corn syrup, corn meal, and animal fodder. Reid's Yellow Dent comes from growers Robert and James Reid, who took it to the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago where it was dubbed "World's Fair Corn." Since then it continues to set the standard for all other types of dent corn.
