It's maize that they chop up and use for cattle fodder, as opposed to corn on the cob.

Feed or seed corn, as opposed to sweet corn. I saw a guy stealing some from a field near my work, I stopped and told him it was not something people eat, unless it is properly dried and made into cornmeal, then johnnycakes or fried mush.

Almost every available field grows it around hereabouts, 8' tall or so. We have very few other crops, as we have to grow a lot of corn and soybeans here, due to the climate and soil being so suited for it.
