Based on the records collected and complied by the ICCA - The international Crop Circle Archive - in 2001
197 different Crop Circle formation were discovered world-wide. Compared to the years before in which the
number was 275 we had about 30% less formations. The reason for this decrease may lie in the cold winter and
the wet and rainy spring 2000/2001 in Europe. Some also refer to Foot & Mouth disease as a possible explanation
why, suggesting that less hoaxers went into the field. It is the view of ICCA that this view is not really valid as
we have to note the fact that in the two previous years we were blessed with an unusual obvious high number of
formations (1999 = 241) and that there were other previous years with less formations than in 2000 with nor F&M
crisis out there. One should also not forget, that to ask each year for new records in number, size and
complexity might be a more human wish having probably not much to do with the real phenomenon's
background or intentions.
