More info

Purple corn is a genetic mutation of maize. It flowers cultivated or in the wild in several places of America. The purple corn was cultivated in Peru in pre-Hispanic times and was known as moro sara or kulli sara. It is also cultivated by the peasants of Yucatan and the Indian tribes Hobi and Navajos in the United States. However, it is Peru where its cultivation is more widespread and where it is used massively.

There are several varieties of purple corn such as Morado Canteño, Morado Mejorado, Morado Caraz, used for sowing in the sierra., Arequipeño, traditional variety, Cuzco Morado and el Negro de Junín that grow between 1,200 and 4,000 m.s.n.m.
