The article mentions on of the downsides being 9 month growing cycles, vs the 3 months for corn grown currently.
- roel_v 8y agoHere in Western Europe there is only one harvest of corn a year anyway (mostly for fodder), with a nitrogen fixer sown in and ploughed under later summer/fall. Are there places where multiple harvests per year of corn is possible?
- yetihehe 8y agoBut a 9 month growing cycle means that this corn won't have enough time to grow.
- lostlogin 8y agoI’d be worried about the summer months too and not just the winters if this year is any guide.
- exhilaration 8y agoMexico, apparently, where this plant was found!
