Food Plot Equipment. Thread starter H80Hunter; Start date Apr 3, 2018; H. H80Hunter New Member. Apr 3 ...
Quick question for all the food plotters. If you were starting from scratch, what food plot equipment would you buy to strictly plant food plots for deer? Money is a factor, but a good argument can be made for money vs time.
Mar 3, 2022. #2. "Dual System of Perennial Clover and Cereal Grain". A perfect deer food plot needs to check a lot of boxes: #1 Feeds deer year round. #2 Species has the ability to outgrow deer grazing pressure in small plots. #3 Grows in poor, low PH soil without a lot of soil amendments. #4 Can be managed without a lot of big equipment.
Trying to plot around stumps ain't fun. On the other hand, you could simply clear cut the section you are talking about and keep the stumps sprayed with gly until they completely die. Disturb the soil and you will have a smorgasbord of deer food, cover and bedding by letting mother nature to do her thing.
This will be a small plot in the woods, cleared for full daylight. This was cleared with a chainsaw and no heavy equipment so there are still stumps and a huge root system so no till. (Maybe a disk in the future, but not for awhile) I'm not looking to spend a ton of money or completly break my back but I'm also not in a hurry as this is a back ...
I'd consider the approach that this is the easiest least complicated way to grow a food plot with the least amount of equipment and it works between 50 to 100% (guessing on the 50% based on my experience here) depending on so many variables that a try it and see to begin with is worth a shot on small plots or parts of large plots.
I want to plant all the various food plot seeds like buck wheat, soybeans, clover, oats, turnips, radish, Austrian winter pea, brassica. Want to get a seed drill type planter and have been looking at the Firminator, Firmiseeder, Woods FP60, Brillion Food Plot Seeder, Golden ValleyGV60 and Kasco. I have a 32 hp John Deere and a 5' wide 3 point ...
Oct 2, 2016. #1. Been working on a new food plot plan for my farm going forward after experimenting the last 4-5 yrs. I'm calling it "stacking", i'm sure other people have done it before but I do not know of anyone. I'm planting either sorghum/ milo or corn in every plot next spring . After it dies down and thins up a little I am going to try ...
Farmers use fertilizer to replace the nutrients they remove by harvesting. With a good mix of complementary crops and a no-till approach, you build OM and can take advantage of natural nutrient cycling. The only nutrients removed from a no-till food plot are what is eaten by deer. They defecate back most of those.
Your Tar River drill weighs 1400 lbs at 6 1/2' wide. That's 216 lbs per foot of width. My Great Plains 1006nt drill weighs 4300 lbs, which is 430 lbs per foot of width, which is over twice as much weight on each cutting disc in the ground, and it has a weight rack to add additional suitcase weights for hard soil conditions.
