Corn - how to dry kernels

Here in Thailand they dry the ear of corn with the kernels still on the cob. Then remove the dry kernels and plant them. Tie a string around the stem and hang the ear/s minus the husks.
 
Thank you for the info. I just have to hang it inside because of moisture here, but it is nice to know before I picked it all.
 
I usually let it mostly dry on the stalk, harvest in late summer/early fall and leave it in the shuck until next spring and stored in the shed, then shell and plant the following spring.
 
The Surfer has spoken. I was hoping you would chime in as I have come to respect your opinion great'y.

Thank you
 
here, commercial growers allow only one ear to mature on each plant while harvesting the 2nd ear as baby corn.

i was wondering, how many ears can a corn plant produce if grown not only for personal consumption?
