Hunters out there what is your go to seeds for a food plot?  I am thinking of switching things up and broadcasting cereal rye/some cover for two corners on a property I hunt when the beans start to turn.  Each plot will be 1.5 acres in size.  The idea is that it'll get a jump start to growing before being picked.

Each one of us here today will at one time in our lives look upon a loved one who is in need and ask the same question: We are willing to help, Lord, but what, if anything, is needed? For it is true we can seldom help those closest to us. Either we don't know what part of ourselves to give or, more often than not, the part we have to give is not wanted. And so it is those we live with and should know who elude us. But we can still love them - we can love completely without complete understanding.

They look like they have some good blends. Let me compare them to local feed store.

Well i broadcasted the rye within beans over the weekend.  I couldnt find forage oats until yesterday. So this weekend I may cast a bag out within the plotted area.

thank you. I am going to check on it this week. i finally did find buck forage oats at a local tractor supply. so i am going to overseed with some.  the local store near me was selling it on sale for 19$ a bag.  i love using corn but its a hassle for me to constantly be putting it out.

Here in pa there is no baiting so i make a couple plots in my woods , have switchgrass planted in my open fields. What i plant is winter rye , red and crimson clover. The winter rye keeps growing even after it gets eaten, and sprouts green again at 38 deegrees and above. The crimson clover is a quick sprouting and growing annual that attracts similar to soybeans. And the red clover is a slower growing semi annual that attracts till the following august.I also have a trees for wildlife nursery that i sell trees from. Fast growing chestnut trees chineese, and wildlife chestnuts whichare a hybrid of chineese american sesquin and allegheny chinkapin.I also have saw tooth oaks american persimmons  etc...
