Corn has no technology to grow quicker or in cooler climate.
It’s a plant thing.

I remember Ag Tech Stations (or something like that) back in the 60s in Illinois. They developed breeds for a variety of conditions.
There are 90-day varieties. There are cooler weather varieties. Not just for corn. Last couple of years, the people I know who grow commercial tomatoes were selling a 64-day heirloom called Berkley Tie Dye. Delicious and available way earlier than other varieties.
BTW, barley was a staple in Europe during the last Minimum. It is very versatile. I don’t know if it yields enough for animal feed, but it has a lot of uses for humans.
Plants have been engineered for centuries. Today, it done technologically, but humans have bred plants for adverse conditions probably since the dawn of agriculture.
yes and no... there’s 90day corn and then there’s 120day corn
they can still get in 90day for awhile yet
