I have just harvested all my corn. Is it OK for me to pull it out of the ground or let it remain until all the summer crops have been harvested?

Yes, you can pull/cut or whatever to the stalks once you have all the ears. What variety did you plant?

I chop it up right away so that it will rot down a lot before winter.

Wayne is right, pull it up an chop it into small pieces and turn them into the ground.
Put the root ball in your compost pile, or dry them and burn them later.
