Abstract

Corn is a food crop that produces quite a lot of carbohydrates so it is widely used as a food ingredient and is widely needed by industry as well. In Deli Serdang Regency, some of the people make their living as corn farmers. To obtain maximum corn production, it is necessary to pay attention to several factors that influence corn production, such as harvest area, rainfall, temperature, humidity, wind speed and average solar radiation.
