Farmer in Argentina to pay tribute to Lionel Messi in unique way.

Farmer in Argentina to pay tribute to Lionel Messi in unique way.

Lionel Messi has been immortalized in Argentina with tributes ranging from tattoos to murals after leading Argentina to World Cup victory. Now, his visage may be seen on a cornfield that has been specifically constructed from above. An algorithm was used to spread the seeds in the field near Los Condores, in the center of the province of Cordoba, so that when the corn grew, it would produce a massive visual representation of Messi’s beard.

Maximiliano Spinazze, the farmer who planted the odd crop arrangement in celebration of the squad’s victory—their first World Cup since Diego Maradona captained the team in 1986—said of Messi, “For me, he is unbeatable.” “Now they are world champions, I am delighted this can be expressed by planting the crop.”
