Shuttle breeding is a technique for growing a crop which involves growing two successive plantings a year- one in the summer season in a location where growing conditions are favorable and the then moving the plants to another location during the winter season to a new location where winter conditions are favorable to plant growth. This makes the growing process faster.

What is the function of the crop in a pigeon?
Generally, the crop of a pigeon is where the seed they eat is ground for easy processing. Pigeons eat tiny pebbles for the crop to grind the seed, and the stones are constantly ejected and replaced. During the breeding season, instead of storing food, the pigeons' crop is stimulated by hormones to take on a 'lactating' role. This enables the pigeons to produce a substance commonly called "pigeon milk" which is just the regurgitated food on which they feed their young. This pigeon milk is rich in fats and nutrients. Australian researchers have recently found that it also contains antioxidants and immune-enhancing factors.
