Looking great so far!! You build it and they will come LOL!!
well looks great and
sounds like you got lot of things covered to hold deer yr round
I started making food plots back in the late 80's, and I think over thelast 10 yrs or so, I enjoy planting and making food plots mroe than hunting, due to I get to see critters in the all yr , rather than just hunting seasons hopes
BUt this is also my first yr since the late 80's I didn't plant a thing LOL
maybe next yr
Also, I like the fact you have a tiller to turn ground over with, and the ground looks like good soils
not many rocks I can see really in the fields
up my way. more rocks than you can shake a stick at! LOL
Thanks. Well you got me beat mrbb. You were plotting before I even graduated high school LOL. I have been food plotting for just under a decade. I learned a lot on my old farm and I am looking forward to making improvements on this new farm I bought in 2013.
The tiller is a great tool for sure. This is the first year I have used larger equipment to put in plots after years of scratching by with ATV sized equipment. I got a great deal on a used John Deere 750 4x4 with loader. I borrowed the brush hog & tiller and I hope to have my own in the near future.

yeah you for sure learn as you go in this food plot game, I know I sure did
all the mroe so when it came to chemicals and ways to save $$ along the way
to me the idea small acreage tractor is about 50 hp and 4x4
can run and pull most things needed and have power to sprare
sad part is, since Hunters started doing food plots , it drove the prices of used tractors in the rage WAY up
funny, back in the 90's tractors like this, were cheap cheap by standards, as all the main farners were up grading to the big stuff and bailing on the smaller things
then food plotting took off and its been crazy on prices of equipment ever since
just look at the atv plot tools
yrs back when tractor went to 3 point hitch designs on almost everything, all them old pull behind tools were junk laying about farms
now they got hunetrs paying top dollar for them LOL
Crazy
but best of luck to you on setting up the new farm
sure you'll do just fine, sounds likk you have the right idea's to me!
