Scientist Found a Plant That Could Change the World



In the Mexican mountains, there's an ancient corn with huge cobs and crazy aerial roots that drip slime, which could revolutionize agriculture by reducing the need for toxic chemicals. Locals have been growing this unique corn for over 2,000 years. Another amazing plant is bamboo, which is a food staple in countries like China, Japan, and the Philippines, and even used in traditional dishes in Bangladesh. Then there's the Cinchona tree, whose bark is used to make quinine, a cure for malaria. The Quechua people of Peru were the ones who taught newcomers how to use Cinchona bark effectively.
