We have a fairly new dam and I want to plant something on the slope that will hold the soil pretty well through the winter and also provide something for the deer and turkey to forage. I have heard that it is good to mix winter wheat and oats for this type of application. We of course do not want to till or plow the slope and I hear that both of these will grow pretty well in poor soil without having to be tilled.
Although this really isn't used as a food plot, I was thinking that either or both would probably do a lot better than ryegrass-which deer will eat, but they are supposed to get no nutrition at all from. At least with the wheat and oats, I figure the turkeys might like it as well as possibly the deer.
-Anyone tried anything like this?
-Thanks
