I have a total of about 18 acres thats tillable but the only thing growing in it is tall praire grass and juvinille cedar trees. I would love to convert some of it to food plots but heard it can be pricey and u need to know someone who can disc your ground and what not….i have the land and the energy and can spare SOME money to do it but need some direction/help. anybody out there?
where you located at? I have all my equipement down in schuyler county if your anywhere near there.
If the grass is still brown, just mow, then disc… no sense in wasting the herbicide. of course if its green, mow, spray disc, etc..
I just mowed mine down 2 weeks ago, went out this past monday, and disced the heck out of it. gonna do it one more time to really make sure its all gone in another week or so. I will then plant my rr corn, eagle bean, milo mix. I plant these in a like a half wagon wheel pattern, then do clover and brassicas in between the strips of c/bm. this creates nice shooting lanes from my tree stand, and allows me to sneak into my stand using the higher corn for concealment.
heres some pics how i did it 2 years ago.
