Habitat & Food Plot Mixtures
| Habitat and Food Plot Mixtures | | |
| One key to successful habitat and foodplots is to have diverse plant types in the seed mixture. We do our best to emulate natural diversity in our mixtures by using adapted varieties of complimentary species. Appropriate seed count ratios are key to achieving long term diversity. |
|
|
| Upland Game Food Plot Mixture | | |
| Provides excellent winter cover. Good for food source and cover to increase winter survival. Good shooting cover. This mix is a balance of sorghums and millets with Sunflowers, Wild Game Food Grain Sorghum, Regular Hegari, Pheasant Acres Forage Sorghum, Black Oil Sunflowers, Proso Millet, and Japanese Millet. |
 |
|
| Pheasant Acres | | |
| Hybrid sorghum with heavy grain set for habitat. It is medium tall (4 ½ ft to 6 ft.) with good stand-ability. Birds like the grain and good cover as well. It has good seedling vigor for establishment. |
|
|
| WGF Sorghum | | |
| An early maturing grain sorghum 2 ½ — 3 feet in height. The attractive red seed becomes palatable at maturity, and is readily consumed by quail, turkey, pheasant, and prairie chicken, as well as migratory birds, and deer. Holds lower leaves well to provide good between row coverage leading to better flush of birds. Mid bloom 43- 50 days, Mature seed 85-100 days. |
|
|
| Regular Hegari | | |
| Hegari is a medium maturity, medium height (4' to 5 ½’) white seeded dual purpose sorghum. Makes good cover and excellent grain producer for food plots. It has good drought tolerance and is excellent for dryland production for wildlife. Planting to mid bloom is approximately 50-55 days. Plant type similar to Pheasant Acres but lower cost. |
|
|
| Japanese Millet | | |
| Japanese millet is an exceptional wildlife plant. A choice duck food eaten by waterfowl, upland game birds, and many nongame birds. Both the seed and vegetative parts are used. It also provides forage for deer. This robust annual ranges in height from 12 to 40 inches, depending on growing conditions. Leaf blades can be from one-to three inches wide. For waterfowl, wetland areas planted in the spring should not be reflooded until the plants are at least six inches tall. Flood to 12-18 inches during the migratory season. |
|
