I was talking to a co-worker of mine and he brought up this idea as we were talking about the lack of mast for the wildlife. We are surrounded by National and State Forest. There are hundreds upon hundreds of acres of clearing and fields in the forest with a good amount of these way off of the roads, accessable only by forest service right of way. Why cant the DNR and/or forest service plant grain, corn, hay etc... during the spring and then harvest it. When we have a bad mast crop, a bad winter, put this feed out for the wildlife to get them through the winter?
