Corn is a consumable item in Fallout 4.
Background
Corn and maize are consumable items, grown across the former United States. The plant grows into a tall, leafy stalk, producing ears of corn that can be harvested and used as food or broken down into components such as vegetable starch.
Gameplay
A common plant in the Commonwealth, corn can be planted in settlements, the produce of which can be harvested for food or as a component for Vim or Vegetable Starch. Similar to all crops except Mutfruit, it provides 0.5 food per plant when assigned to a settler.

Notes
Vegetable Starch can be broken down into adhesive, a valuable component for crafting. This makes corn one of the most valuable crops to plant, along with Mutfruit and tatos.
Bugs
- Sometimes when planting corn, it can be placed in the harvest state already. This can lead to an infinite loop of planting and harvesting it.
- It seems to disappear after some time.
When removing corn, sometimes it disappears, but you can still see it in the workshop menu. Every attempt to move it causes the game to crash or lag.
- When planted, sometimes a small piece of the bottom of the model will dissappear, which makes the corn seem to float.
