"Black corn is a special kind of corn. Because of a black pigment, its seeds are jet-black. Its nutritional value is higher than that of other grain crops. The sugar degree of black corn is 11.95%, which is one to three times higher than that of regular corn. In the past few years, it has started to sell well on the market. Black corn can be grown in the majority of corn production regions in China," according to Mr. Gao Lei of Liaoning Jun He Agricultural Science and Technology Co., Ltd.

The full seeds of "Xin Jun He Anthocyanin Black Sweet 1"
"Xin Jun He Anthocyanin Black Sweet 1 is a variety of sweet black corn with natural anthocyanins. In the past few years, it has been produced all over China. During the harvest, its seeds are a red-purple color. After they are boiled, their color becomes even better. In China, the majority of farmers are producing the general black corn breeds, and their production is only small. "Xin Jun He Anthocyanin Black Sweet 1", on the other hand, is a crossbreed. It has a large production, and a sweet taste. They usually take 85 to 90 days to ripen, and another 115 days to dry."
