In the reading about the Native Americans and their technology, it said that maize saw its best production from the techniques used by the Native Americans.  Does our modern day corn production reflect any of the Native Americans techniques?  Are we able to get two harvests from our crops today?  Additionally, if maize was such an amazing grain, why has it fallen by the wayside and yellow corn has taken over as the primary corn produced today?
