Chaoyang University of Science and Technology students grow corn; Zhu Meng is down-to-earth and loves hands-on experiences.

Uncle Ah-Zhi "bound" (※1) nearly seven jia of farmland from local elderly farmers, and more than half of it was first-crop rice land converted to a second crop, and the portion approved for conversion could be planted with sweet potato.
The farmland he bound was one 3-fen plot here and one 7-fen plot there, not necessarily located within the same farming area, and the distance caused inconvenience in field management. Some of the smaller plots also disrupted the crop scheduling, and some were even left fallow on the spot.

Note ※1: Bang (bound), Taiwanese, means contract farming. Renting farmland from elderly farmers, in terms of three or five years per period.

So I spoke up and borrowed one fen of unused corner land, wanting to grow some corn.
The land had never used pesticides to begin with, and the weeds along the field ridges were especially obvious, so using organic cultivation to grow corn was of course most appropriate.

Growing corn is simple farm work, but the preparation beforehand must be done well. The field had been fallow for half a year and had been flooded by a typhoon and water disaster. After the water receded, although the dried-out soil had extremely high nutrients, the hard clods of subsoil still needed to be broken up, and early-stage fertilizer also needed to be added.

I had already planned to grow one fen of corn by myself, but it happened that a group of students from Chaoyang University of Technology came to the area to experience rural life, so I took the opportunity to let them personally receive rural school education.

Postscript: After the students finished planting the corn, they agreed to come back to pick corn and eat corn when the corn matured. That would be an even more beautiful scene.
