food plot help---first timer
Our farm is currently being logged. All of our oaks are being removed, so we are without acorns now, which were a major food source when the crops were removed.
The loggers are leaving roads down the ridges into the bottom of the hollows, which mean 2 things for me:
1) I am able to get into areas I never was able to before.
2) The roads are also in interesting locations to put some harvest plots.
Now I know thatthis is often the case, but I am trying to do this on a low budget. So far, I am planning on white clover and broadcasting it over some disked up ground.
My major goal is simply to just hold deer in the area after the crops are taken out. There will be bedding all over with the tree tops littering the ground, and the canopy opening up allowing extra growth. However, there will be nothing but persimmions after the beans and corn are cut.
Any help would be greatly appreciated on any step from preparing the plots, to planting, to maintaining them.
