Maize is a new world crop.

Explanation:

Maize was originally domesticated and cultivated in the Americas, specifically in regions of Central America and Mexico, before spreading to other parts of the world. It is not native to the old world, such as Europe, Asia, or Africa, distinguishing it as a “new world” crop important for global agriculture today.
