Answer:

  • Their wives simply did not like the tortillas the corn hybrid made
  • The farmers did not like the flavor

Explanation:

This is in relation to the <em>''The Introduction of Hybrid Corn to Spanish  American Farmers in New Mexico'' </em>by<em> Anacleto Apodaca. </em>

The United States Department of Agriculture had tried to introduce a new hybrid corn to the Rio Grande valley in the 1940s to increase the yield there. They succeeded in doing so and the harvest became bountiful.

A couple of years later however most of the farmers had stopped planting the new seed and the reason they gave was because their wives did not like the tortillas made from the new corn and they did not like the flavor as well.

"why did elizabeth dole lose her bid for reelection? consider the advantages of incumbency"
vitfil [10]
It is claimed that she fought a dirty battle which was more based on insults than on presenting your own plan and program. She had the incumbency advantage and instead of focusing on that, she defamed her opponents which even led to her being called to court in a defamation lawsuit.
