Thanks for the respoonse LB. The property I have in mind is already managed very well for its timber, gravel and development. There would be little to do to the land other than post the property and create a few food plots in the few existing meadows and along some wooded roads. I doubt the owner would sign a lease of a long enough period to invest too much effort foodplots and such. I think maybe what I am looking for is " exclusive tresspass rights" with the understanding that I could seed some small open areas. The extension services from a few southern Universities offer really good info on contract language and benifits to the land owner, unfortunately they leave out info on going rates and so on.
