To the best of my knowledge there are three primary (broadly defined) types of corn grown. The first, and by a very wide margin the most, is commercial production "Field" corn.

Field corn is used for animal feed, corn flakes, and ethanol production. Some specific hybrids are tailored for specific uses under contract with BTOs.
