Corn and Bean Crop in Iowa

Iowa has had way too much rain this Spring and a good percentage of the corn and bean crops have been washed out. The farmers have tried to replant what they could. However, this past week, more rain came down and washed it out again. Now it is too late to replant. This is going to make a difference in the entire world's food supply. Our groceries will be going up even more due to all the products, especially cereals, that are made with corn. Corn on the cob is already very high and probably will get higher priced due to washouts of those crops too. Corn on the cob is one treat we really look forward to every Summer.
