is that for food plot or production?
What variety of alfalfa have you planted in the past? How much of or how many acres? Based on one of your other posts, you were pleased with it?
Thanks!!! I am going to give it some consideration. We've had or will have, some property changes and I want to maximize one property over another ......
If there is a downside it’s the price. I think a 25lb bag is about $400.00 or so.
Boy howdy you better not screw up when you plant it!
Very interested in peanuts for food plots. Where do you get your peanuts to plant, local ag store? I guess I could research but how many pounds per acre for food plot setup? The deer love our peanut fields the farmers plant but never thought to do for food plot. thanks for sharing
You'll have volunteers forever most likely, you'll probably have a ton of pops without added calcium, but volunteers will come up for a while.I buy them from local farmers. You can also buy the leftover from Birdsong Peanuts in Unadilla. They will not sell them to you until the real farmers are done planting.
I still have a lot to learn with my planter setup but 100-125lbs per acre is good. One Row of my planter did great and he other so so. I’ll be taking it to a farmer friend for some much needed help.
You can just broadcast and harrow it in. The deer do and will eat the nuts but the tops are where it’s at as far as attraction. It’s about as good as it gets for attraction. If I can make nuts, I may get lucky and have a volunteer crop next year.
