It's easy to plant smaller food plots with simple hand tools! Watch as Grant shares the strategy for small food plot locations, how to manage small plots for hunting, weed control, seed varieties, soil health and more!
There’s lots of research out there that shows that when you plant a very diverse mix – you’ve got grasses and in summer that may be milo or corn or sorghums; and forbs – that could be beans or peas; buckwheat. There’s all kinds of forbs, sunflowers, and brassicas. In the summer, I may have a collard or something like that – that all those different species working together do much more to improve the soil than a monoculture.
We get a lot of questions from folks who have rough land like this, or for whatever reason don’t have access to a notill drill or to tractors, whatever. We started on 13 acres the same way. I did everything by hand. And the question usually is something like, “How can I get the benefits of The Release Process without using a notill drill or a Goliath Crimper or something like that?” And to be really honest, you can’t get 100% of those benefits, but you can come close.
