I need help. Do adding more seeds to earth help preserve seeds? Or less seeds=less birds= less loss? What is optimal amount? Can you help?

Birds eat more than seeds you know! A penguin won't give a toss if there are a few fewer seeds about.

Something will prey upon the birds, e.g. raptors.
So the bird population will boom & bust ...

I know, but we are disscussing how many seeds can we preserve. But nice point through.

We are there about what nuber of seeds at time A can guramntee the biggest number of seeds at time B. I did a mistake that I didn't formulate the question right. Hope this helps.
