Here is a good example of companion planting.
corn thrives being planted with beans, in this case green beans. You actually put the corn and the beans seed in the same hole, and voilá!
The corn provides a trellis to the bean, and the bean fixes nitrogen for the corn as well as maintains humidity. One of our first crops while improving the soil after planting only beans, was corn with beans.
