Catering more toward private landowners this week, we will be discussing spring food plots.  As farmers are advancing with fertilizing, spraying, and planting crops, every year wildlife managers are eager to pull the trigger and begin spring food plots.  While there is nothing wrong with spring and summer food plots, ask yourself are they truly needed for your property?  Hunting and management goals need to be considered as well as the property itself and the surrounding neighborhood.  If your focus is whitetail deer, are you building a herd or attracting a herd?  What is the lowest hole in the bucket?

With their background in agriculture as a farmer and an agronomist, your hosts Devon and Mitchell will shed light on their perspective of spring food plots.  Soil management and preparation is key – it starts with the soil!  Should you plant, what should you plant, how should you plant, and how do you manage your chosen crop?  And last but not least, how do your food plots relate to your management goals?  Tune in for quality food plot information and some outside the box ideas!
