National Corn Picking Contests

Posted by Jim on May 30, 2004 at 21:54:52 from (165.139.155.111):

For those of you that were around and farming in the 1950's and early '60s, tell us about the contests. I know they were held in different parts of the US and farmers who participated would travel a good ways to take part.

What all brands do you remember seeing there? New Idea, IH, Ford, AC, Moline, Oliver, Deere, Massey Harris, others?

What was the graded criteria?
% of trash , weight of corn picked from given acreage, unhusked ears, etc?

TIA for educating us.
