[quote=craig] While a hybrid corn does give higher yields for a food plot there is nothing wrong with just the use of any shelled corn you can get from a local farmer & is vastly lower in costs. Sounds random perhaps to any who've not tried it, but it works well and saves one heck of a lot of $$. You can also plant with a grain drill if you've not a corn planter, just plug the holes you need to to get a proper row spacing. In fact if you use shelled corn from a local, it handles the mix of rounds and flat seed better. "

Get in touch with someone in NWTF or Pheasants Forever. I bought an 80,000 seed bag of roundup ready hybrid corn for $10 (normally this bag sells for around $200). Its coming up great. RR takes care of weeds for cheap (buy generic roundup) and thus increases yield because you can quickly address weed issues.
