Synopsis "Kernels of Corn History: A Brief History of 18 Iowa Hybrid Corn Companies, Corn Farming Implements and the World's Only Corn Museum"

Woven throughout the colorful history of corn production are multitudes of individuals - farmers, mechanical inventors, scientists, etc. - who have created the deep and fascinating fabric of corn history. In a special 1992 edition, TIME Magazine described corn hybridization as "one of mankind's greatest achievements in the last 1,000 years." "Kernels of Corn History," authored by fifth-generation Iowa farmer Steve Kenkel and South Dakota author/publisher Loretta Sorensen, brings together the story of 18 Iowa hybrid seed corn companies and detailed information about development of early corn farming implements those farmers used. The book also contains a pictorial tour of Kenkel's one-of-a-kind corn museum which grew out of his research efforts. The book is the outgrowth of 10 years of work Kenkel began in 2003 with a search for information about Iowa's Shelby County hybrid seed corn companies. Readers will enjoy a snapshot of the history of some innovative farmers and equipment manufacturers who have helped create the captivating history of growing corn in America.
