What stalk is Soviet corn?

Soviet corn refers to Khrushchev, whose nickname is corn.

Khrushchev was the leader of the former Soviet Union. He advocated planting corn to solve the food problem in the Soviet Union. Later, many farms planted corn, but some were not suitable for planting corn, resulting in no harvest. So everyone gave him a nickname called corn.

Khrushchev and Corn

Former Soviet Prime Minister Khrushchev wanted to learn from the United States and grow corn in all parts of the Soviet Union. In many classic old photos, he smiled with a corn cob.

But the natural conditions in many parts of the Soviet Union are not? Suitable for growing corn, so the state organs finally cheated the prime minister with corn cobs bought from abroad. Khrushchev, on the other hand, became the object of ridicule by the western media because of his "ignorance" of the geographical conditions of the country and being deceived by the staff of state institutions.

However, netizens use it mainly for fun:

-Why do I like corn so much? Seeing corn is as happy as Khrushchev!

The "Corn Movement" in the Soviet Union

Since ancient times, countries all over the world have paid special attention to the development of agriculture. It is no exaggeration to say that the degree of agricultural development not only affects the national strength, but even determines the life and death of a country. After all, only when the people are full can they have the strength to do other things. So all countries in ancient times vigorously developed agriculture. When agriculture is well done and grain output is high, the people will have the strength to invest in economic construction. For example, American agriculture ranks first in the world.
