The bull is located just east of Mitchell, SD - home of the Corn Palace. Mitchell has had a corn palace since 1892. Back when Lewis and Clark came through this part of the country they wrote that the area was a "Great American Desert" suitable only for buffalo indicating no man could make a living farming this land. To prove them wrong and to draw settlers to the land the Corn Belt Real Estate Assoc. built the first Corn Palace to showcase all the crops that could be grown. They've built one every year since. Basically, the entire outside of the building is decorated with all sorts of corn. It's also by default become the world's largest bird feeder.
