The past two days I have been working on the ranch with Dylan and some others on the ranch to help them finish up the corn study that Dylan has been working on all summer. It was exciting to get to see the final product after helping to work on it some this summer. I got to help direct guys with machetes on which stalks of corn to cut down at random and carry them to where they would be counted and weighed and some would but put into the shredder and turned into feed. One of my favorite parts surprisingly was helping to shuck the corn because I never knew what I was going to find in each ear, some had odd deformities and some were beautiful shades or purple and yellow, it was just like opening presents at Christmas…well almost…haha. But it was also really neat to know that I have been able to a be a part of a much bigger project and idea that is going to eventually help the people of Las Palmas produce the best corn that they can to use and sell for cattle feed and for people to eat.
