Hi everyone, cause I just graduated and my professor from a state agriculture institute advised me to grow some corn as one of the exercises for Genetic Breeding & Biotech courses while I'm home at the same time. <br><br>On the other hand I'm looking for a more organic way to grow the corn as not to spoil the soil I'm using that will be passed down to my family in the future. What I'm planning to do is breeding some Lavender Racing Pigeons to keep at the same space either on top of the corn, so that they can sweep away or even eat some insects that might be the carrier of some fungus diseases.<br><br>Somehow as it turns out, the same birds I'm currently buying can be used for various things as well such as:<br><br>Buying cheaper feed<br>- Because Pigeons are taken as vermin, I can go & pick some cheap corn as feed in one of the local markets nearby.<br><br>Spreading seeds & Natural Fertilizer<br>- I could get them to fly on top of the soil and sweeping away the cause of the disease with their excrement (might need to be more efficient though).<br><br>broadcasting seeds<br>- Same as above, I could potentially sending them to a certain distance to drop the seeds for the next generation of corn, so that I might not need to spend so much money on gas and such.<br><br>Thank you for reading!
