It is the nature of forums to have classic important contributions slide to the bottom of the proverbial pile. As I searched for something else this appeared. I am not a tree guy. But this is a work of much...
Presumably we are all of a like mind when it comes to the primary reason for this forum. It's about wildlife (deer) habitat improvement. Or, let's assume so. We have come here to share our experiences and to learn from others.
As I sit in the sun I wonder what I've learned and how my...
I have a lot of trouble when I think about soybean seed types and varities for food plots. Production 'beans are easy. Buy what yields best. But food plot objetives are so diverse. The answers are scattered about thru many posts. So, while we endure a couple more weeks of winter I thought it...
N, P, and K...and all the other micro elements. We've beat to depth the most complicated aspects of lime, liming materials and the impact of its application to plant production. Soil improvement? That too! And maybe we've done the same with fertilizer materials but I don't remember it -...
Seed is a small miracle. We kick it around a lot. When you buy it there are many important characteristics to consider. Name & variety are familiar. There should be tag or a label on the seed package listing many important characteristics like % germination and more.
These tags/labels are...
I find myself looking back a lot as I try to recap my ups and downs, my victories and defeats- and wonder what golden words of wisdom I might offer a young person who has sought me out to learn the ways of habitat management as we know it here. I'm laughing out loud with you! Fat chance, I...

I'm sure there's nothing more controversial than federal spending, for it or against it. The Farm Bill is the food and agricultural policy of the United States...
I confess. Other than around the house I have never planted a tree for habitat improvement. Its looks too hard! By that I mean the effort and investment required to assure some level of success at some uncertain time down the road leaves me shaking my head left and right, not up and down...
It might just be because I wonder, too. One of the most asked questions is how to keep soybeans green late into the season. And, while there are some logical answers, like plant forage 'beans or just plant 'beans a month before you want them to be 'attractive,' I wonder if planting a full...
This could go multiple locations. Some of you may know I'm very much into maps - like all things geospatial. It puts bread on my table. There's this thing in the industry called remote sensing. Aerial photography, satellite imagery, that kind of product. You're most familiar with Google...
Seems like in many parts of the country where we plant, finding the inputs for a food plot at reasonable prices gets harder with the passing of time.
Early in my professional life I ran the local co-op, and while, small lots of product commanded higher margins, we'd break open 50 lb bags of...
Since a lot of us are here for the first time today - and others will come soon- maybe some tips and tricks for using the forum?
For example, I see there's a way to upload files, but what kind? Size limits. I'm sure all that's in here somewhere, but I can't find it. I'm old and am running...
Let's kick this off! My first post!
No doubt you know the habitat and food sources on the land you call your own. But, just maybe, you should -- and can -- consider the situation on adjacent land, not all of which you can easily determine.
I'm in the middle of some good Virginia ag country...
