Amazing deer. Hope he finds his way to you.

Ain't got that many fingers and toes....

If income was not a primary objective and hunting was.... I would consider requiring a cover crop of your choice. Also that no fall disking of waste grain or organic material till after hunting season. A tilled under corn field in November sucks.

Those are some nice looking sunflowers. The deer didn't eat them all. Nice tall variety.

You should be drawn and quartered for even thinking that..... Deer are amazing creatures in what they eat and when they prefer certain plants.

Fire in spring will likely result in the larger stems to resprout and be even worse. Fire in August and September will have better results in controlling woody plants. But you can be alot more precise with a triclopyr application and spot spray. You are wanting to use triclopyr 3A version. It...

It all depends on your objectives. If you want to add organic matter at higher rate and have more biomass on ground to suppress weeds.....crimping helps alot. That is assuming you crimp the right species at the right time. Crimping breaks the stem on mature plants. It is highly likely that...

Have planted about 10 acres each year for doves. Deer will eat them. They don't produce alot of tonnage of forage. Use a JD 7000 Finger planter and it does a good job with size 2 sunflower with a population around 18k. Have drilled them but they produce smaller heads with same population. I...

Email sent....thanks fishbonker for keeping us updated so we can do our part.

Fyi.... new crp signup begins Monday.

Amazing. Cool photos

Written contracts. Consider adding required no-till and multi- species cover crops to NRCS standards also. That would make them plant things like wheat, oats, turnips, clover,etc each fall. It would really add to your available food for deer. Plus its the same stuff you likely put into food...

Congratulations buddy! Great buck and thanks for sharing.

I have white reflective wraps and white/neon green fetching. The reflective is very bright at night when shined with a light.

Fyi....ebi score needed to be accepted this time around was 175 or greater.

The terms will be the same. But the species in mixtures and rates can be very different in each state. Cp22 is riparian forested buffer. It could have a strip of native grass included. Cp2 is native grass. Not sure about the payment unless it was enrolled as a conservative reserve enhancement...

I know what you mean when asking switchgrass vs crp. For the sake of clarity, switchgrass is a native warm season grass. Crp is a program that may include various types of grass or trees planted on ground that is "rented" by government farm services agency for 10 years or more. Just want to use...

Crp grassland does not pay anything like General crp in most cases. But it also does not have as many restrictions. Its much simpler.

Google "fsa notice 934".

Currently the 30 option is limited to crp buffer type contracts set to expire this fall. That is why he got a postcard and its not available to everyone at this time. If it will cash flow the payments...it would be hard to walk away in my opinion.
