Corn in The Phillippines Is Indispensable
Corn was originally brought from Mexico by Spanish colonists through the shipping trade. The earliest records of corn cultivation date back to the 1700s, when the Spanish introduced three crops: tobacco, cacao and corn. Although not unique to the Philippines, corn is now the second most important crop in the country.
According to the Department of Agriculture, about 14 million Filipinos prefer corn to rice as their main staple food. Corn is also processed into corn starch, corn syrup, oil, and gluten, and is used as the main ingredient in a variety of cuisines.
