The International Crop Circle Archive reports 197 different Crop Circle formations were discovered Worldwide in 2001. This number is about 30% less than 2000 when 275 were reported. The reason for this decrease may lie in the cold winter and the wet and rainy spring in Europe. Foot and Mouth disease also limited travel in the effected areas, suggesting that fewer 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 no Foot and Mouth 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.
