Meet Chike Alvan, a graduate of the University of Benin, where he read Geography and Regional Planning. Ever since his graduation in 2014, Chike unlike he's peers delved into agriculture with megre savings. He utilized his fathers large expanse of undeveloped land in Minna, to materialize his passionate curiosity of crossbreeding several varieties of the maize specie to produce something unique. And the result, although not what he envisaged, was a farmland filled with Brown Corn Cobs, and oh yes its not a miracle, plus it taste even more delicious than the conventional white and yellow corns!

@Op I have been seeing this kind of corn during harvest time in the southern part of kaduna state, but I am yet to see a farm that cultivate purely this variety of corn. So you are not the first person to cultivate it.

Very correct.
As far back as th 80's, we use to see this in our farm in the South. I have also seen many of such seed sold on alibaba and ebay. What will be new and innovative will be finding a product which it can be used for due to it's colour. What is the colour of the starch? What unique property(ies) does it have compared to other varieties?
