I have owned a farm that is in it since May 2013, it has its pros and cons! Yes you can do food plots up to 5% of your non timber acres but you will need to get your plan approved threw your NRCS Area Easement Specialist, mine has been pretty easy to work with! It does say that no permenant tree stands as like the ones that you would build, hang ons and ladder stands are ok. They want nothing permenant, such as a camping space or even fire ring. The do aerial photos and will call and ask you about something if they don't like it, the main thing is if in question just ask them. You can get a land owners tag for deer and turkeys, I have made ATV trails and done some timber cutting but they do not allow sales of the timber or anything that you could make money on, you can do firewood for your own use. Just remember there is a reason this property is in this program, it can flood if you are by a river, it can, I have had the Volga river come up and ruin a really good food plot crop, submerge my equipment and kill a bunch of my seedlings that were planted. But it is a way to get into land ownership at a much more reasonable price and know that you control your farm and your hunting opportunity! Best thing we ever did and if you can amke it as an investment and improve it you should always be able to get your investment back, can't say the same about the stock market! Good Luck, hope yoy
