Quebec Corn Harvest Brings Bumper Crop, Lower Prices
Quebec farmers are reaping the rewards of a successful corn harvest after a slow start to the season. The bumper crop has resulted in a surplus of sweet corn, driving down prices for consumers and providing a boost to the local economy.
The increased supply has been particularly beneficial for retailers, who have seen their stocks depleted quickly due to high demand. Despite lower profit margins on corn, farmers are enjoying a profitable summer thanks to good yields of other vegetables.
